INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION ASSIGNMENTS
Due to the short length left in the semester, the Industrial Revolution Unit will be 2 weeks long. It will be the week BEFORE & AFTER winter break.
Mr P will NOT assign homework over winter break. However, FAIR WARNING: The Industrial Revolution packet will be due Friday January 8th, 2010. That is the Friday upon the return from winter break. So, some students might want to do the Industrial Revolution Assignments over winter break to avoid heavy work loads with their other classes upon return from winter break. The choice is yours. Good Luck!
Anything listed as Period 7 might be done as an after school lesson for those who want to attend. Attendance is NOT mandatory. NOR is attendance extra credit, unless Mr P says otherwise.

Bored on a Friday night? Want to watch some darn good movies and all related to the Industrial Revolution.
a) Modern Times - Check out this silent film classic with the legendary Charlie Chaplin. The first 3 or 4 minutes might be slow, but it is pretty much one laugh after another after that. This is NOT just pure comedy but Chaplin is also making some pretty awesome commentary about the modern industrial society and all its silliness. This movie should make you think about how silly people live their life today. Hmmm??? Who will make the Modern Times of today? Also, trip out on how darn amazing the music is throughout the film. It goes right along with the emotion and movement of the film. They don't make movies like this anymore.
b) On the Waterfront - This is an American movie classic. It is about the fight of dockworkers to take back their union from the corrupt and intimidating mob. Anytime a dockworker tries to testify in court against the mob, somehow that person "mysteriously dies." Father Barry is a priest who tries to continually encourage the dockworkers to take back their union from the corrupt mob. Totally one of Mr P favorites. Mr P's favorite seen is when the priest gives his stirring speech in the hole of the ship after KO Doogan gets "accidentally killed." It is one of the best movie acting scenes ever!
c) Matewan - This an underrated movie about West Virginia Coal Miners of the 1920s. The movie shows the social, economic and political dynamics of the time and place. It gets into issues like large companies, work rights, unions, scabs, racism, company police (thugs), oppression, propaganda, etc. This is a good one. It makes the viewer think. (If you can find the movie online, forward the link to Mr P.) This link is just a clip of the screenwriter John Sayles talking about the film.
D) Oliver Twist - This movie is based on the old Charles Dickens novel. It gives a good visual sense of what social and cultural misery the Industrial Revolution brought on to people of Britain. The story follows the rough adventures of an orphan boy with many of the problems and hardships of the Industrial Revolution shown throughout.

RANDOM INTERNATIONAL TRADITIONAL NEWS FROM PNN
So to prepare for the Holiday Season and being that this is the World History section of the Website, you all have to check this one out. Well, King P wants the Directors of Randomness to report daily on this wacky holiday matter. Apparently, the Swedes have this wacky Christmas tradition of making a giant goat from like a hay material after the harvest season. The Swedish city of Gavle claims to make the biggest giant goat in the world. It is suppose to be a traditional symbol of Christmas in Sweden. The funny thing about the giant goat is that it is suppose to be up through Christmas and the New Year but each year the giant goat usually does NOT makes it. Each year some phantom Swede (or others like even a 51 yr old American in 2001) comes along and lights the giant goat on fire. Each year security is stepped up and each year the burning of the giant goat gets more elaborate. Supposedly, it is big news in Sweden. The smirking newsman will come on TV and say something like, “Well, the giant goat got it early this year” or “Although it lasted longer than usual, the giant horse has suffered the same fate once again.” I hear that most Swedes laugh about the whole thing. Yet, the security tries to take it serious by preventing a burning and have the giant goat make it to Christmas. This year security has two 24 hour web-cam monitoring things. Also, there is apparently some nonflammable substance to protect the giant goat from any possible attempts to burn it down. Will the security protect the giant goat until Christmas or will the same wacky burning tradition continue? Be sure to monitor this goofy international story during the holiday season. Lycka Till, Giant Goat!
Here is the link to the webcam of the Crazy Swedish Christmas Goat that burns almost every year
Here is a little Wikipedia Basics on the Swedish Christmas Goat
