My students are an energetic, funny, loving bunch of First Graders! They are excited about learning and love new ideas and hands-on learning activities. For many of my students, school is the place where they feel safe and loved. They like routine and structure and they know what to expect when they are here. Our school is an urban school that has 95% of the students on free lunch programs. We have many students that are homeless or stay at shelters around our school. When students enter our doors, they know they will be fed, loved, and will be taught in the best way possible for their individual learning styles. Many students come to school hungry, tired, and angry. Many of them have low skills in reading or number readiness skills. I need to find ways to keep them engaged and excited about learning while still trying to focus on all of the Common Core State Standards and curriculum that I need to teach them!
