All my students are eligible for special education services. The classroom has students with autism, specific learning disabilities, vision and hearing impairments. They attend a Title I school in California. My students come from a lower socioeconomic class but they have dreams of attending college. Many of them are English language learners and are several grade levels behind in reading and writing. Most of my students don't have Internet access at home or a working computer. They come every day eager to learn and grow. Budget cuts have hit our school hard and the students have suffered the most. We have only one computer in the classroom and it is difficult to teach lessons in the computer age without any computers.
