# data[].attributes.body
With WW1 starting to happen in the early 1900's, schools started shutting down because the teachers joined the army and had to fight in the war. The great depression also hit so there was very little money going into education. WW2 hit and the women went to work in the factories so private schools emerged so the children had somewhere to go while the men were off at war, and the mothers were working.
For education in the 1900s, they realized that they need to quit PLAY.
John Dewy believed that children needed authentic materials, to learn problem-solving skills and he also believed that children needed to learn how to be individual students and how they need to be their own person and figure out what they like to do, and who their friends are.
