My Thought on Child Labor in the Industrial Revolution

I think child labor in the Industrial Revolution was a horrible thing and it should have never happened. A lot of children died from the harsh environment. In the mills they lost there fingers and in the coal mine heavy rocks would fall on them and kill them. Child labor in the Industrial Revolution disgusts me I just can’t imagine how it was like to be there doing it. I think it is awful children had to go through that. That is how I feel about the child labor of the Industrial Revolution.

The Senate

If I had to pick which branch of government to be on I would be a Senator in the Legislative Branch. The US Senate is part of Congress, and there are 100 Senators in the US Senate. There are two Senators per state with overlapping terms meaning they can serve how ever many terms they want to. Senators represent their constituents and have the power to pass, amend, and repeal laws. Senators meet in the Capital building in Washington D.C. The main reason I want to be a Senator is because they make the laws. It would be awesome to make laws. Another reason I would want to be a Senator is because we get to meet in the Capital of Washington. We would also get to meet the president. I would love to be a Senator.

American Revolution: French Soldiers

 

 

There were about 250,000 soldiers that served in the French army. They were allies ( friends) with the Americans and helped them throughout the war. The French navy entered the war fighting off the British along the American coast. French soldiers helped reinforce the continental army at the final battle of Yorktown in 1781. During the war the French goverment went into debt. One of the reasons France helped was they wanted revenge on the British because they had lost the 7 years war against Britain in 1763. France and the French soldiers gave most of the support. image

Coding

Coding was fun, I did the Star Wars coding. The beginning was very easy but the end was more difficult. There was this one level that was really hard. You had to catch these small mouse bots. I give Star Wars a 6 from a scale from 1-10.

American Flag

I think Betsy Ross created the flag because she is more known and there is more stories about how she was the one who created it. It sounds like Francis Hopkinson drew it but Betsy Ross sewed it and came up with the 5 pointed star. So once again I think Betsy Ross created and sewed the first American Flag.
