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.

Dearest great-granddaughter,
I have been through thick and thin, hardships and moments I will remember forever. I am passing this on to you, for I know I may die soon but you will surely live on to the 2000th century. Below is enclosed the changes I have been through and advice to help you through them in the future.
Wars are awful,terrible,terrible things; it hurts the lives of many. As soon as you think everything is better it gets worse again. You find everything around you crashing down. My advice on this is: stay strong and believe in what you know is right. Military has never been an easy topic. I cry for fear of what may happen to you, but no matter what, STAY STRONG. This is important no matter what.
All through your life, you will find people changing and growing into different lifestyles. This is okay. Culture is meant to change, my dear. Choose what you feel is right and live it out with all your might. Culture is what makes us unique. We all have at least a little bit of variation.
Now for science and technology. Oh, the times, they are changing! It seems every day a new man finds a solution to a problem he has been searching for for years! First, it was that man Thomas Edison, presenting the light bulb and now W.H. Carrier patents the design of the air conditioner! Oh, I'm sure soon there will be a different type of telephone and all these fascinating things to imagine! I do wish I could watch it all, but I'm afraid my days are numbered.
I love you, dear, and I hope that this will help you find your way through life. Embrace the bad things that happen, so you can love the good things even more. I love you with all my heart.
With Love,
So-and-so
