Today in class we continued our inquiry lesson, although this time we focused more on laborers conditions and they hardships they faced. We went through different songs and newspaper articles to find the bad conditions faced by laborers. An example of one of the articles we read was The Triangle shirtwaist factory Fire newspaper article. The bad conditions faced in this article were the workers had low wages, long hours, insufficient escape plans, and they worked in a poorly built building.
