About this game

Review the lesson “Workers and the labor movement” from the French history curriculum for 4e (ages 13–14). Its questions are about workers’ lives, the work of women and children, the rise of labor unions and socialist ideas, and the mid-century revolutions.

Review the lesson “Workers and the labor movement”

This review game covers a single lesson of the French history curriculum for 4e: “Workers and the labor movement”, from the unit “Europe and the world in the 19th century.” Its questions are about workers’ lives, the work of women and children, the rise of labor unions and socialist ideas, and the mid-century revolutions.

Each round has 10 questions drawn at random from the lesson: multiple choice, fill in the blanks, matching, short answers and timelines. After each answer, an explanation recalls what to remember. Hints are free, and you can go back.

The game follows the French national curriculum: 4e is the third year of middle school in France, for students aged 13 to 14. Elsewhere, it works as general knowledge for curious learners of that age. Play it again and you get other questions: it is good practice right after the lesson or before a test.

Tip for a successful review

Put yourself in a worker’s shoes: working conditions, hardships, then the ways workers defend themselves (strikes, unions, social laws). If you get it wrong, read the explanation carefully: it tells you what to remember.
