Every day around the country, young children are grow up surrounded by all of the latest technologies. They use their parents' iphones, iPads and laptops at earlier and earlier ages. Sadly, my students are not fortunate enough to live with these luxuries. However, my first grade students are amazing. Despite living in a high poverty area, they come to school every day ready and excited to learn. Our school serves a very diverse population. Approximately 99% of our students are Latino and one hundred percent of our students receive free or reduced price lunches. Regardless of these statistics, my students have the same interests as any other student. They love being read to, playing with their classmates, earning stickers and learning new things.
