Princesses would study the fine arts, literature, foreign languages.  Leisure time was horseback riding, creative arts (embroidery, painting, drawing).  Lots of time reading  & writing letters.  Remember, no email or internet back then :-)

This was the period when the Industrial Revolution was beginning. The working class were, up to this point, mostly rural farm workers. They would have worked hard in the summer, harder at harvest and less hard in the dark winter months. \nThe Industrial Revolution effected a large scale movement of people to the towns, where they worked in factories, often for very long hours and very little pay. The environemnt they lived in was often polluted and unhealthy (coal dust in coal mining / cotton dust in textile industry)\nThe exploitation of the factory workers was a subject discussed at length by Karl Marx.

At the point in time when the colonies were developing, they used water power! New England had plenty of streams and rivers. Its shoreline and oak forest aided the shipbuilding industry.

Even before the invasion by the English the maharajahs used to bring scholars from there to teach their children English .And when India was under the British.Those who really had enough wealth and academics went abroad to study professional education as there were no colleges offering them here.Post independence knowing English was great thing soon as the development favoured schools started teaching English

There were literally thousands of jobs depending on your status. Government, Military, village support, peasant.\nVillage support could be\n  baker\n  shoemaker\n  clothing maker\n  butcher\n  leather worker\n  blacksmith\n  administration\n\nshoemaker:  getting supplies from the leather worker, would make shoes for the rest of the village. The shoemaker would employ tools made by the village blacksmith. \n It would take all evening to write about the various jobs and functions of ancient China. Village life was as busy then as any city in modern times.

1600 to 1820 is a very broad time frame, and a lot of things happened then.\nthe first English settlement, in Jamestown, was built.\nthe Salem Witch Trials in Massachusetts.\nThe French and Indian War.\nThe American Revolution.\nThe signing of the Constitution.\nThe war with the Native Americans to the west.\nThe war of 1812.\n\nIn my opinion, making a replica of the buildings in that period sounds rather dull, and it can be hard.\n\nEither make a little skit, which would be fun for your classmates to watch, or take the easy way out and do a power point. Keep in mind though, power points can be tiresome because you have to find good images on a computer. Writing a skit is easy because it's whatever you want it to be.\n\nI would advise you to find a small subject. If you did a presentation on the entire revolution, it would be too broad and end up being vague. So focus on one event. You could take a famous part of the war, say the Seige on Boston, and you could act out what happened that caused the English army to lose.\nYou could take one famous person from the revolution, and give the personal side of him, and what happened after the war was over.\nYou could look at the campaign in the 1790's to take the Ohio Valley away from the Native Americans. You could look at Arthur St Clair's humiliating loss, and how much it cost the American army.\nOr you could do something about American culture. How did Thanksgiving come about. Who were the people on the Mayflower, and what was the agreement they made with King James, and how did that eventually cause the Puritan majority in Massachusetts, which lead to the Salem Witch Trials.\nLook at someone like Ben Franklin...he was a famous inventor, he discovered how to harness electricity, he was very respected among all Americans. When he became a revolutionary, how did that shape the way other Americans felt?\nThere is a lot you can play around with. I say find something that happened, that was either exciting or humorous, something you can take somewhat of an interest in. That way, you won't bore yourself to death trying to work on it, and your presentation will come off more interesting (which means a better grade).\n\nOnce you choose your subject, you could have a skit together, or a power point, in just a day or two. That way, your classmates don't fall asleep, and you don't have to worry about your replica getting broken.\n.

I suspect you would find that 100 years ago children worked unless they were from a wealthy family.  Children chopped wood, helped with various chores depending on the family - farming, milking, feeding and caring for animals, fishing, mining, logging, working in the family business, cooking, laundry, delivery boy, etc.  Older children helped care for the younger children.  They often attended school only until old enough and strong enough to work.  By the time they were young teenagers they wre expected to enter the adult world and take responsibility to help with the family income.  The more privileged ones were able to stay in school until graduation and even go on to higher education.  And 100 years ago we were in the midst of industrialization and rules about child labor were quite different from today.

According to Luis L'Amour, they were mostly pretty young; teenagers, a lot of them.  It was a very difficult and demanding job that did not pay very well, and the older guys basically found easier things to do.

These are very common subjects. You may consider doing research or checking class notes. For lack of that,\nthere was a big burst of industry after the civil war. Things became more advanced. More people moved to the United States and of course, emancipation of slaves had a great effect on the diversity of the population. Maybe these facts can help you to understand what sort of development you're looking for?\n\nSorry I couldn't be more helpful!

Look on the web for info. Then right an introduction paragraph leading into ther next. Maybe you can write a paragraph on ther daily work habits, both the men and the women. Then write one about there struggles with the government ( how did the gov. treat them, taxes, ect.) Write one on there daily life. What did they live in, what did they eat, what did they do for fun and entertainment? What did there children do to help out. Did they have education? I could write a book if you let me go on. What did the peasants do that was important for there people and the country. It just keep going and going. Hope this helps a little.

They almost never HAD leisure time. Usually, they did something productive that was less important. Women often did embroidery, or quilting, which was important, but not absolutely necessary to be done immediately. Men often worked with wood. Occasionally, usually on Sundays, a family would sing songs together and play instruments. This was reserved only for the Sabbath, when one was not allowed to work. Also, many would read scriptures. If they were very rich, they might read a fiction book, but that was extremely rare.
