I have the pleasure of co-teaching 20 kind-hearted, active third graders who are interested in learning everything! Our school is in a low income area where the students do not have the opportunity to have some of the experiences that other students might. At times this lack of experience shows in their background knowledge, education, and social skills. It does not show in their spirit and drive to learn!
