This activity involves reading two historical accounts of Sir Robert Peel’s and Sir John Russell’s responses to the Irish Famine. Students are tasked with answering a series of comprehension questions based on these accounts, focusing on each leader’s policies, their motivations, and the consequences of their actions during the famine. The final question encourages students to compare and contrast Peel’s and Russell’s approaches, allowing for critical thinking and deeper understanding of the economic and humanitarian challenges faced during the famine.
