In my classroom, we recite The Learner's Creed every day: "I believe in myself, and my ability to do my best. I will think. I will listen. I will read. I will write. I will do all these things, with one purpose in mind. To do my best, and not waste this day. For this day will not come any more." As a teacher in a Title I school, I am very aware that many of my students are facing hardships. Children living in temporary housing, come to school hungry, and do not have the basic tools needed for their education. Despite any obstacle they may face, when my students walk through my classroom door they are a scholar! I continue to provide student-centered, rigorous instruction aligned with standards-based learning activities. These are the future leaders of our world. We must support them to rise to their highest potential!
