Title 1 School Teacher in Need of Help
I felt that this teacher did a great job at describing her students and giving readers an insight to their background and where they come from. She also mentions that she is trying to give her students a “safe space” and that was something that really drew me in. I know the importance of providing a safe space for the children where they can feel comfortable and confident but also learn.
There were a few spelling errors throughout the description, which can be off putting for some readers, and the title of the page isn’t direct enough. I also felt that she could include a bit more research-based material as to why she needs hands-on materials.
Dramatic Play
Again, this teacher did well at describing her students’ backgrounds, as well as the background of her school which I appreciated. I also liked that she included why early childhood education is so important and that we should be investing more into it overall and her classroom.
As I said for the previous Donors Choose page, providing more research would probably help their purpose. Many people don’t recognize the importance of dramatic play, and even by providing a link to a credited source or article would give the page more credibility.
Early Childhood Tables
I respect this teacher’s need for smaller tables. I liked that she allowed us to imagine her young students having a hard time reaching for things on the tables because they are too big. However, I understand how important child-sized furniture is for the students’ confidence and comfort, but many others do not. I think she should have gone a bit more in depth as to why she needs new tables for her class. Other people may not understand the importance.
