Drag and drop the boxes into the correct order.

Rearrange these statements about employment at different times in the UK, starting with the earliest.

Big changes in the way we farmed the land meant that there was less work available in the countryside
A new kind of work emerges that depends very much on technology
Jobs in workshops become available where you could be an apprentice carpenter, cobbler or blacksmith
Most children, like their parents, worked as subsistence farmers, making just enough food so as not to starve
The Industrial Revolution arrived and many children worked in factories or in coal mines
Factories began to close down and unemployment became a massive problem. Children had to stay in school until they were at least sixteen.
