My students are a fantastic bunch who mostly speak Albanian, Chinese, Spanish and Arabic. They come from low socioeconomic families and many are first generation immigrants. They love hands-on learning, dancing, singing and getting dirty. Many students in the class have it pretty rough since their parents work in other states, or countries and they are left with grandparents for weeks and months at a time. The days when they come to school with frowns or staring on the floor that's my cue to give them extra love since their parents have left again to make a living. This is the first year our school has opened and there is a lack of supplies and necessities available. We do not have sinks, bathroom, smart boards, Wi-Fi, and even a telephone in the classroom. The art materials are extremely limited since there are other materials which are more necessary.
