The Industrial Revolution was a big change for society in the 18th and 19th centuries. Let’s take a look at some important changes during this time:

• Urbanization: Many people moved to cities to find jobs. This changed life in the countryside a lot.
• New jobs: Factories started to open everywhere. They created many job opportunities, but the working conditions were often tough.
• Technological advancements: New inventions, like the steam engine, changed how things were made and how people traveled.
• Social changes: More people joined the middle class, which changed relationships between different social groups.

Here are some key dates to remember:

• 1760-1840: This is the time when the Industrial Revolution mostly took place.
• 1833: The Factory Act was passed to make working conditions better. This showed that people were beginning to care more about workers' rights.

It was a time of both progress and challenges!
