I teach fifth grade at an elementary school Fresno, California. Our school is so poor that 99% of students qualify for free lunch. It doesn't get much worse than that. This is an urban school in the midst of an agricultural valley. I have thirty-three students. This year I have a forest theme in my classroom--not rain forest, but temperate forest. The kids love it. Our motto is "Mighty oaks from little acorns grow." Aside from the state ed standards, I teach my students about heroes and moral courage. I have a poster of the Tank Man beside my "Character Counts" posters the school requires in every classroom.
