I am a teacher to an energetic group of second graders at an inner city public school in Los Angeles, CA. The school is a Title I school, which means the majority of the students receive a free or reduced priced lunch. I truly love what I do and I'm always looking for ways to improve my teaching and my students' learning experience.
