About this worksheet
Introduce why the Industrial Revolution began with a one-page set of fill-in-the-blank scaffolded activity. As you read or present, students complete a short, connected passage on the roots of the revolution in Britain: changes in farming, the enclosure of small fields, a rising population, rich coal and iron, merchant capital, and growing demand from global trade.
These are guided notes for struggling readers. The word bank helps in writing the answers.
