Today, you will learn about the machines, railroads, and ships that helped industries and trade in the north expand.

  6. Activity • I will divide you up into groups of 3 or 4. • You and your group members will prepare a TV commercial for your assigned invention. • You should address these 3 questions in your ad: • What does your invention look like? Describe it to me. • How does your invention work? What does it do? • In what ways will your invention revolutionize American life? How so? • Remember, commercials should show how the customer’s life would be made easier by using this invention or service. • Groups will then present their commercials to the class.

  7. You will all be facing each other

  8. Activity I will be videotaping these and possibly playing selected interviews for the class…so make em’ good! Whichever group number you have, you will match that to the invention number on the next page…ready…
