MY INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION

ALMOST THERE!

Image
      Clans! You almost reached your goal but… You have one last mission!!! The train that will take you from  Southamptom to London leaves in 1 hour. In this time, your clan must solve all the tasks necessary to receive the code of the ticket that you need to be able to ride on it and thus be transferred to your final destination: Your own factory.  To pass these tasks you will have to look for the different QR codes that are distributed and hidden throughout the classroom. Scan them with your devices and the task will appear on it . If you do it correctly you will get one digit of the ticket. To get the full ticket and be able to ride the train, remember that you have to complete 5 tasks in total and have all the 5 digits!  Times flies! Go Go Go!

REVOLUTION TIME!

The debate is in the air and we must act. Your clan will be divided in a group of proletarians and a group of labourers of a factory. You will create a podcast, making a discussion of at least 5 minutes where the owners of the upper class will defend their capitalist system in the factories and the others will expose the conditions of the workers and defend more social alternatives. You must show what you have learned on this topic. The most elaborate debate will win the corresponding prize. You can record it simply using the recorder of your mobile. Internal divisions in the clan... who will win?

WATCH OUT CLANS!

    Our activity consists on watching two videos taken from a very famous film called Germinal (1993) in which you will see two very different life-styles : Burgueois and proletarian ones.  Your clan must take 4 differences and or similarities between the videos, using what we have learnt in class. Finally, you will answer if you consider both life situations fair or unfair. You can´t repeat the arguments! You will write it using a Collaborative Word Drive below which you can find on Symbaloo.   Good luck clans... watch out carefully ... -Bourgeois Family.   -Proletarian Family.   https://docs.google.com/document/d/164TGZPxcGtAT_ofOuaXnimIqrqTZ_TNPONR4nMdKhYc/edit?usp=sharing
