Now have a go at the Making
Ends Meet exercise, in which you have to plan
the weekly shopping for 3 different families
in Blaenavon in 1842. These are a labourer's
family, a collier's and a puddler's.
Your challenge is to keep each family
well fed, warm and clean on the wages available
to each. Is this possible? Try the exercise and
find out.
Attempt the activity sheet
when you have tried the exercise, and don't forget
to use the Evaluation sheet.
