My students are a lively fourth grade bunch in an Integrated Co-Teaching setting located in the Bronx. This means that my classroom has a unique mix of students with special needs and general education students. Many of our wonderful students have Individual Education Plans to meet their specific needs and to give each student strategies and supports that will help them reach grade level and participate in the 4th grade curriculum despite any challenges they may be facing. We call our class a community, a team, and a family. We all work together to support each other and learn not only the academics but how to be loving, caring, powerful, passionate human beings. We instill in each of our students that they can do anything they put our minds to; our school starts every morning by reciting "With these hands, with this heart, with this mind, I can do ANYTHING!" And I want each of my students to believe it!
