My students come from all different cultural backgrounds; Asian, Arabic and Hispanic. They are English Language Learners who are overcoming tremendous amounts of hurdles and making extraordinary progress. They are bright, warm, personable, and quite lively. They enjoy coming to school and learning the English language through hands on projects in Science and Social Studies. Our school has created an atmosphere that is "family" like. From the moment students enter the school building there is a sense of safety and belonging. In my class I truly believe in building relationships; teacher to student, teacher to parents, and student to student. These relationships foster an environment of trust and risk-taking. In order for students, especially English Language Learners to make progress and be successful in their academics there must be an opened and welcoming environment.
