 Do now: Write 3 facts about the Erie Canal (306-7)  Today, I will explain how improvements to transportation helped grow the country. I will also be able to explain the importance of the Erie Canal  Turn in 11.1, 11.2 won’t be collected (use on your quiz)  Quiz 11.1/11.2 Wednesday.

 How was the construction of the Erie Canal part of the Industrial Revolution?

Area of westward expansion by the 1830s.

 Allows for quicker settlement of territory  We can’t expand as a nation without improvement to infrastructure.  Allows for quicker extraction (removal of resources)  Helps fuel growing populations back East  Helps to grow our economy

 Allows for quicker travel of people and goods  Steam allows boats to traverse upstream  Steam allows regular boats to travel faster  Canals connect major waterways  Erie Canal: Connects Lake Erie to the Hudson River, to New York Harbor (NYC), which empties into the Atlantic.  Allows us to move raw materials to factories and export goods faster.  #Faster&cheaper

People were skeptical of the project, “Clinton’s Ditch.” The canal would cover approximately 350 miles linking the “West and the East”. Took 8 years to construct. New invention “stump digger” Cut shipping cost by 95%. Led to further growth and industrialization. erie canal song American Heritage Erie Canalerie canal songAmerican Heritage Erie Canal

 Written by Alexis de Tocqueville a French philosopher. In 1831, he toured America on a Conestoga wagon for 9 months.  Impressed by the Frontier Spirit (rugged individualism = getting the job done no matter what, #noexcuses).  Impressed by the Erie Canal (you should know why). #Digit  Impressed by our continued growing prosperity #wegettinpaid  Impressed by our stability #cant phase us

 The North improves infrastructure / transportation. Their wealth and population continues to grow.  The South sees few improvements to infrastructure. Travel between states continues to be difficult. Continued reliance upon traditional means of transpiration (rivers)
