My students come from diverse backgrounds. Most of my students speak another language at home other than English. Many of my students will be in school for the very first time.
Needs:
My students will all be English Language Learners.
My Philosophy:
I believe that every student is a unique diverse talented individual that brings their experiences into the classroom. I believe that students all learn in different ways and that it is important to have a classroom that respects and honors their diverse backgrounds.
