I teach social studies to 110 sixth-grade students across four different classes at a traditional public school in Baltimore City. My students represent a wide range of cultural, linguistic, and personal backgrounds, creating a rich and diverse classroom environment. Approximately 20% of my students have Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), and 10% are English Language Learners. The majority come from economically disadvantaged households, which shapes both their academic needs and lived experiences. This diversity brings unique perspectives to our discussions and fosters opportunities for building empathy, critical thinking, and global awareness.
