Sarah Stretch Through Her Letters
"You would be surprised to see what a fearless dreadnought little fellow Willie is."
This site could be used as a learning tool for students. Games could be created that encouraged students to research and find relevant details from the massive number of letters. These games could be coded into the website or simply designed by the teacher as goals for the students.
For example, students could be asked to answer research questions, providing references to the evidence. Try answering the following questions to get an idea about this potential:
- Who is Isabel?
- Which of Sarah's children had trouble with ringworm? For how long?
