Women during the Industrial Revolution: Primary Source Analysis and DBQs (1865-1920)

This 20 page primary source analysis activity gives students a chance to delve deeper into the experiences and contributions of women during the Industrial Revolution and the Gilded Age.

There is a total of 16 primary sources for students to analyze along with 18 comprehension questions. Included is a one-page sheet that explains what primary sources are and how to analyze them using specific questions through a process called HAPPY. Primary sources include excerpts from journals and books as well as images. Each page of primary sources includes comprehension questions.

There is also a page at the end for students to apply the HAPPY process to one source. There are two Document-Based Questions (DBQs). An Answer Key to all the questions and the HAPPY process is available at the end of the packet.

Depending on how much of the resource is utilized, it can be used for one or multiple class periods.

This is excellent practice for all high school students, particularly Honors and AP students, but all students will find these resources engaging.

There is also an Easel Assessment. For Home Schoolers or for asynchronous learning, this is a valuable digital tool.
