For this activity, write a short creative story about the life and working
conditions of a child during the Industrial Revolution. 

Use one of the seven
included images as a “starting point” and write a short story about the type of life and
work that the child in the image likely lived. Examine one of the images and imagine
what kind of conditions the child likely worked under and how their life was. 

Your story needs to contain:
  Details about how the child’s life would have been lived and what they likely
experienced at home, work and in their daily life
  What kind of injuries or dangers they would have faced
  How they would have felt about their work and their workplace managers
  You may want to consider how the child might be seriously injured or die in your
story.
  A short narrative with different characters and interactions (Be Creative!)
