My students live in a low socioeconomic status area. They are surrounded by poverty and the struggle encountered by a portion of the population who struggles to meet the varied needs of their students. However, my students don't lack in curiosity and a desire for information. They hunger for access to relevant materials that speak to the world that we live in and how changes occurring around us impact their future. Our school strives to provide access to relevant materials, but most of the resources are spent in an effort to increase basic math skills and to help increase a students' reading ability. These materials provide a positive impact on their learning, but now we need to increase our focus to provide access to materials that help satiate a healthy interest in the world that surrounds them.
