My classroom is full of curious readers, authors, scientists, and mathematicians. My students attend a Title I school in Oakland, California with a school-wide free breakfast and lunch program. Many of my students come from families and communities that have experienced some form of trauma and often have difficulty coming to school. The typical student in my classroom has felt the stress and uncertainty of homelessness, hunger, loss and so much more. My students are survivors and thinkers, who push through these tribulations to question, dream, and inspire. Together, we show up and work hard each and every day to grow as life-long learners and critical thinkers.
