I love my students!!! I work in a low-income school where 68% of the students are considered low income. We have similar numbers to Title 1 schools but because of the way money is allocated, fewer schools get funding and we are one of the schools that got bumped from Title 1 funding. Even though it is a low income area we have fantastic parents and students. I am amazed at how involved the parents are and how they reinforce reading at home. I send take home books on the students reading level home daily and get those back the next day. I love that my students read at home. I am trying to instill a love of reading in my students. I teach my students that reading is all around and "the more you read the more you know, the more you know the smarter you grow!". When they have books at home that they can read it will improve their reading skills and help them develop a love of reading.
