My school is an economically disadvantage urban public school with over 70% of the students qualified for free or reduced school lunch. The school population is about 355 students for Kindergarten through Fifth grade. It consists of 3 programs: ELD, Spanish Bilingual Program, and Chinese Bilingual Program. I have been teaching the First Grade Chinese Bilingual Program for 19 years. Most of my students are new immigrants with parents speaking little or no English at home. For my students, they have the disadvantage of not being read to at their early years. They also do not receive much help with homework with their parents due to the language barrier. However, these parents want the best for their children, and they put all their hopes and dreams in guiding their children as the leaders of tomorrow in my hands! Not only do I teach all the 1st grade standardized curriculum required by my district, I also maintain the students' first language by teaching Chinese language instruction daily.
