My fifth grade students attend a public school in the East Bay. This diverse group of students come from various backgrounds, but many of them qualify for free and reduced lunch, live in a home where no English is spoken, and lack the resources and support needed to promote literacy in their homes. Despite all of these factors, my students love to learn. They come to school each day eager to learn new things and I am continuously learning from them in return.
