Warm-Up Question: Why might it have been easier for large farms to experiment with the enclosure movement and crop rotation than the small family farmer? How did population growth spur (accelerate) the Industrial Revolution to begin and expand? EXPLAIN.

Following the warm-up question in class today, the students were given two readings on the birth of the Industrial Revolution in England and supporting questions to help synthesize their thoughts with the lecture notes from Monday. They were given a chance to read the materials in class and complete the worksheet as part of an activity with their peers. If they finished early, they were able to get a jump on their Unit 4 vocabulary.

WH Honors Homework: Finish Great Britain Leads the Way/The Industrial Revolution Begins Questions and continue with Unit 4 Reading (Chapters 9 and 10) and Vocabulary.
