Imagine you were born in 1830. throughout your life, you witness one momentous change after another.
by the first decade of the twentieth century, the world around you has been transformed thoroughly. now
comes an important event in your life. it may not make it into the history books or the newspapers, but it’s
all your family members can talk about…the birth of your first great granddaughter in 1914! you’ve lived
through a lot of changes, and you begin to wonder about how the world might be transformed during her
lifetime. after all, your granddaughter might well live until the year 2000!
you sit down to write a letter to your newborn granddaughter—something she can read in the years and
decades ahead. reflecting on the types of changes that have taken place in your lifetime, you decide to
write about what you think will happen in the century ahead. your letter will address possible changes in
the four categories you looked at in the previous activity: political/military, cultural, science/technology,
and social/economic.
in addition, you’ll want to write about the following:
ways in which life might improve in the future
good things from the previous century that might be lost as times change
how your granddaughter should view change, what she should resist, what she should embrace,
and so on.
