Compare and ContrastGeorge Washington’s father loved him very much. When
George was young, his father gave him an axe. George’s father
thought this gift would teach George about responsibility.

on his family’s farm.
There was one tree that George wasn’t supposed to touch.
It was his father’s favorite cherry tree. One day, George made
a mistake and chopped this special tree. This killed the tree.
George’s father saw the dead tree and got angry. He
called all the family together. George told everyone that he had
killed the tree.
George’s father was sad about his tree. But he didn’t feel
angry anymore. He was glad that George had learned to tell
the truth.

Do you do chores every day, like cleaning your room
or walking the dog?
During the 1700s, children did many, many chores.

worked in the fields. When they were nine years old, they
would start learning a special job, too, such as how to make
horseshoes.
Young girls fed the chickens, picked berries in the woods,
cooked food, washed laundry, and cleaned the house. They
also cut wool off of sheep and spun the wool into thread.
Young girls took care of younger children, too.
Children in the 1700s worked very hard.
Compare and contrast details from the selection with your own experience. Use a Venn diagram to help you. Then answer the questions below.
1. Think about the chores you do. What is the
same about what you do and what children in
