A Day in the Life of a Coalminer (1910)

In each edition of Show and Tell , we offer one film to a range of teachers to explore in different subject areas.

For this edition, we asked our contributors to look at an early non-fiction, 'instructional' film A Day in the Life of a Coalminer (1910), which offers a glimpse of the work done my men and women at the coal face and pit head.
