Howdy!

Do the children have names? Any chance of giving the writers credit?

Howdy back Zeke!

Great question.

I would have loved to give full name credit to these young writers, but the very sensible privacy policies in Toronto public schools these days, and the teacher's interpretation of them, from what I understand, meant that I wasn't to identify the children or their school in any way if I wanted to reproduce their writing.

I do wish these kids well in the future and hope that one day I'll seem them writing as adults!

Yes! Though I wonder how else they approach this topic. Competitions are handy because you have to argue for "the best" but I wonder how else the class addresses art or looking at art. In any case, I'm grateful the teacher was willing to share these reviews with us.
