One main idea about the Industrial Revolution is that people went from living in the rural (country) to living in the urban (city) areas. Many people decided to do this because the city had many more work opportunities. There were factories in the city that offered many jobs. ]]> 2018-09-25 17:16:35 UTC https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285678301 21mitchellmaria https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285680315 The Industrial Revolution used machines as opposed to manual labor. The farmers went from pulling crops with their hands to getting tractors and other devices to do it for you. The factories had machines that did most of the work for the employees.The main idea is hat it went from manual labor to machines doing the work.]]> 2018-09-25 17:20:31 UTC https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285680315 21mitchellmaria https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285714799 Christopher Sholes was in the inventor of the typewriter during the American Revolution.

Not only was he a wealthy business owner, he was a philanthropist. This means that he thought that wealthy people should not hold all of their money to themselves but to donate it to less fortunate people. His favorite thing to do with all his money he earned was to build libraries for cities since he thought everyone should be educated. He donated to many other foundations as well.]]> 2018-09-25 18:19:28 UTC https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285717048 21mitchellmaria https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285719312 One new word that I've learned during this unit is philanthropist.

They build libraries or donate to shelters or any other ways to give back to societies.]]> 2018-09-25 18:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285719312 21mitchellmaria https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285721743 I learned that the Industrial Revolution wasn't everyone doing good.

Also, farmers were being treated unfairly by the railroad industry. They were charged a lot of money to transport their goods from coast to coast or a different location.]]> 2018-09-25 18:27:33 UTC https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285721743 21mitchellmaria https://padlet.com/21mitchellmaria/cafnv6y4v8xb/wish/285802262 Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876.
