Working class vs The owners

We have organized a debate in 4th B classroom about the effects of economic liberalism and industrial capitalism in the nineteenth century. One group is representing the workers of a textile factory and the other, the owners of the factory. First, each group make an initial presentation of the status of the group and why they are participating in the debate. Then, they discuss issues such as low wages, poor working conditions in factories, the difference between the homes of both groups, etc. There are two very interesting moments in the debate in which one member of each group seriously discuss any of these issues. Here you can see the video of the debate, I hope you enjoy it.

Initial activity 4th ESO: brainstorming

Before starting the unit "Industrialization in the European societies" we made a brainstorming in the classroom to identify the preconceptions we had about it.
Then the students have created a wordle. Wordle is a tool for generating word clouds. Here you have some examples.

A political party for a better place to live

In groups, students imagine that they are going to form a political party to govern their town or city. They discuss these points and write down their decisions: name of the party, its ideology and political programme. Then explain to the rest of the class all about their political party and how they are going to make their town or city a better place to live. Here you can see some examples.

Women's right to vote

Students imagine they are a 19th-century woman and write a letter explaining why women should have the right to vote. Here you can see three students reading their letters.
