The correct option is "Few children knew how to read printed material."

The care of war orphans was an important function for local organizations, as well as for the state and local government. A typical state was Iowa, where the private "Association of Iowa Soldiers' Orphanages" operated with funds from the legislature and public donations. Orphanages were created in Davenport, Glenwood and Cedar Falls. The state government financed the pensions of the widows and children of soldiers. Orphan schools were created to provide housing, care and education for the orphans of civil war soldiers. They became a matter of state pride, orphans were exhibited around demonstrations to show the power of a patriotic education.

Which of these was part of the home front?Immersive Reader (1 Point) a battlefield a family farm a warship at sea an army camp
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

A family farm.

Explanation:

During World War II, the domestic scenario within the American territory was called "home front", where families and all those individuals who were not in the combat zone, both in Europe and in the Pacific, were morally obliged to contribute to the war effort, both through the labor effort in the production of armaments, supplies and food for the military in battle, as well as through the saving of own resources to generate surpluses that contribute with said resources destined to the armed forces.

Thus, family farms, which generated food for each family group, thus saving productive effort for it to be destined for the armed forces, were an essential part of the home front during the war.
