It explores the historical transition of young rural women entering the industrial workforce in 19th-century New England. The primary text highlights the sense of independence and personal ownership these women felt regarding their leisure time and labor, contrasting factory work with traditional roles as hired domestic help. Students are prompted to analyze the motivations behind this shift and reflect on the social and economic implications of factory life for teenage girls of the era. The exercise encourages critical thinking and historical empathy by tasking students to evaluate their personal stance on industrial labor in the mid-1800s. It serves as a structured pedagogical tool designed to bridge literary primary sources with academic inquiry into labor history and women's roles in early American industrial society.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/dbq-1889-lucy-larcom-a-new-england-girlhood-student-handout/612369/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/dbq-1889-lucy-larcom-a-new-england-girlhood-student-handout/612369.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"McQueen","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-06","2026-10-19",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":34},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"Why did young women in rural New England prefer factory work over domestic service?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"They valued the independence and the feeling of autonomy gained from managing their own time and earnings, comparing the experience to a young man starting his own business.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"What historical source is utilized for this Document-Based Question?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"The document uses an excerpt from Lucy Larcom's 1889 memoir titled 'A New England Girlhood'.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"How does the text characterize the feeling of women entering the industrial workforce?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"The author describes it as an experiment that gave girls a sense of satisfaction, providing them with leisure time they could call entirely their own.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},612369,1792712487,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":34,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":8,"language":139,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":143,"read_time":81,"preview_page_count":4},5909890329169,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_9964176cb1d06d4a9deccf72a44ae3dc","Name:   Date:   Class:    \nDBQ—Document-Based Questions  \nwww.studenthandouts.com  \nCountry girls were naturally independent, and the feeling that at this new work the few hours they had of everyday leisure were entirely their own was a satisfaction to them.
