I am a first grade teacher in a title one school. We are located in a socio-economic community where 95% of the children are English Language Learners and their parents are immigrants who do not speak the English language. Moving down to first grade from teaching the upper grades was the best decision I ever made. Teaching the lower grades has been so rewarding so many ways. I love being with them and teaching them. Its not only about helping them read and do math. It's so much more, its about teaching them who they are as little people.
