My Question

My Plan

The Worst Job

What types of jobs did the children have to do during the Industrial Revolution, which job was the worst for them and the best?

The first thing I had to do to answer this question was to figure out what types of jobs the children had to do. Also the conditions of the workplaces and the job. Then choose what I thought was the worst and the best job. I had to change my question after awhile since my research was going in a different direction.
