You have now seen that many aspects of the Industrial Revolution influenced developments in Australia.
One of the main ones was the production of wool.
In this final task you are asked to structure an essay on the question:
How did the Industrial Revolution influence the wool industry in Australia?
1. The first step will be to examine 23 statements about the production of wool in Australia during the Industrial Revolution. Your task is to choose which of the eight content categories each statement best belongs to. Your answers will be listed at the end.
2. The eight content categories in the activity above can now be used to help structure your essay. Drag the eight content categories into a logical sequence to create a clear essay structure.
3. From here you should check your plan with your teacher before going ahead with the writing of your essay. Use the statements from the first activity to help with your writing, but you should do some additional research to find evidence to support your main points.
