I teach 2nd grade in a Title 1 school, where most of my students face serious economic hardships. In addition to students with learning disabilities, I have kids who are refugees from war-torn countries or have experienced trauma at home, which makes it more difficult for them to excel academically. My students' ability levels in different subject areas can range from kindergarten to upper primary, but the one constant is their enthusiasm for learning. In our class, kids collaborate and support each other regardless of their differences, and their compassion and excitement in working together constantly motivates me to find resources which can challenge and engage each of them in strategic problem-solving at their own level. I try to provide a multitude of learning experiences which can be readily adapted to meet my students' varying academic needs.
