As a teacher in a low-income/high-poverty school, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. As their teacher, I am constantly looking for ways to help make learning fun and engaging.
My students love to read, write and participate in lots of hands-on activities.
Many of them are being raised in single-parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. Many of my students do not have access to their own books to read or other school materials at home. When my students walk into my room I focus on their learning and their growth. I know I cannot control what happens at home, but I can control the experiences that happen at school by doing it in a positive way and by making the classroom a safe place
