Hi Friends! I am a special education teacher in the 4th grade in a high-poverty public school in New York City. My students are such wonderful kids; they show tremendous interest in the world around them, and an amazing ability to be kind, thoughtful, and caring friends to others. They are learning to be stewards, right here in our local community, and in a global community as well. They are at an age where to be part of a community means more than just what happens in the classroom - the world at large is dawning on their conscience, and I strive to inspire my students with the knowledge and resources they need to make the world a better place!
