Sesame Street
Sesame Street was created by the I.R.C: International Rescue Committee. The television show allowed children to have a better childhood education and adults were shown how to learn to interact with their children in a nice way.
Kids who watch Sesame Street for 6 years of their life generally got good grades and had social skills due to the fact that Sesame Street has good details on those sorts of things!
The skills taught included Math, Social Skills, The Alphabet, Early Reading and How to make a Friend.
Anabelle Timsit from her blog about Sesame Street said, “It was designed to help preschool kids, especially children from low-income backgrounds, learn the skills they would need to keep up in school.”
Kids are still watching Sesame Street. Did you?

I watched sesame street when I was little, and I had no idea that it has this effect on little kids. What was the original idea for this form of early education?
ReplyDeleteSesame Street was made to help disadvantaged kids in school. What did you learn from sesame street?
DeleteI liked how you talked about what Sesame Street teaches. My siblings used to watch Sesame Street. Do you think that the better grades and better social skills are a lasting effect?
ReplyDeleteI do think the grades and social skills last once your taught something is hard to forget especially when your young and your brain is still learning the basics of life! Did you and your siblings have a favorite character?
