The environment within my classroom is one that cultivates perseverance, creativity, and independence. My fifth-grade students are always striving to learn new information and create new ways to share what they have learned in our writing, science, and social studies classes. In this classroom, students support each other regardless of their personal difficulties or their backgrounds. Throughout the day, there is a multitude of challenges that many of the students face. The majority of my students come from impoverished homes in a rural community, but when they come to school they have a safe place where they can learn and grow.
