My class is a bilingual class with both English and ESL students. They are extremely kind and hard working. The kids in my classroom have ownership over their own learning and a lot of what goes on happens organically. Kids often select their own manipulative they want to use to do their math which is designed to their own interests and ways of learning. I am pleased that a sense of community is developed in every student in my classroom. My students and I believe that creating community is essential to taking risks and deeper learning. Our school takes time building that trust and the rapport must be nurtured. We care about kids and they know it. Taking the time to know our students well, not just as learners, but also as people has helped to create a real sense of belonging in our shared space called our School. I believe this is the “magic” that makes it all possible. I am pleased to say that our school set high standards is one hallmark of our space and community.
