Factory+Labor

At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, child labor was a major problem. Children as young as 6 were working 14 hour days in dangerous jobs in textile factories. Your job for this project is to put together a court case that argues against child labor. Your case must have the following pieces:
 * Opening Statement- 7 to 10 sentences that explain why you are against child labor and what you hope to prove over the course of the case.
 * 3 witnesses- You must make up 3 interviews with 3 witnesses to the conditions inside the factories. You must ask each witness 3 questions and get a 3-sentence answer for each question. You can find your witnesses in the web sites listed below.
 * 3 pieces of evidence- You must produce three pieces of evidence that support your argument. The evidence can be a picture, a drawing, a graph, a chart, or anything else you might find or make. Each piece of evidence must be explained with 3 senteces.
 * Closing Statement- 7 to 10 sentences that summarize the information presented by your witnesses and evidence.
