Question: 1 Susan Elizabeth Blow opened the first successful kindergarten center. It was the first educational opprotunity for young children of the public of Missouri. She spend alot of time in her life of learning and passing her knowledge on to others for generations . When she was grown the average poor family gave their children only three years of education before pulling them out of school to work for the family. Susan helped deal with this by offering kindergarten classes earlier, provoking families to keep children in school for a longer amount of time. She is a hero by my definition because she used her strengths in knowledge to teach others. Susan Elizabeth Blow lived from 1843 to 1916. She lived in St. Louis, Missouri for the majority of her life. She moved five miles to Carondelet after her family suffered from a tragic fire, losing most of their possesions. Susan had to buy new study materials to continue her education. During a trip to Germany with her family, she observed the first European kindergarten classrooms of Friedrich Froebel. This inspired her to move these kindergarten classes to America, so she could educate the young children there. Susan started her first classroom in 1873, located in St. Louis. She ruin it for eleven years without any pay, she often donate money to buy suplies for her kindergarten students. She taught the children about many things in life such as fractions, colors, shapes, and staying healthy. Susan is a hero in my eyes because she helped create a strong foundation of learning for the young children who couldn't afford private schools. She was always enthusiastic about learning, and enjoyed every second of it. She wanted to pass that knowledge to her students and make a difference in their lives. Learning, reading, writing and determination were all personal strengths of hers. As she grew
