My students are beautiful, smart and creative! However, I have too many students who are not engaged daily in learning. My school is set in an urban setting right outside of the St. Louis, Missouri city limits. We are a public middle school (6th-8th grade), 91% African American, 60% free and reduced lunch and full of future leaders of America. I have 2 classes that are taking Algebra and 4 classes that are taking Pre-Algebra. Each class meets for two 90 minute class periods and one 40 minute class period each week. I have students that are in the band, students who are athletes, students who are on the dance team, students who are on the robotics team, students who go home and take care of siblings and even a student who is trying to run her own baking business. I have students who grew up watching videos and now have instant Internet access with nooks, tablets, laptops, smart phones, iPads and even the old fashioned computer. I teach non-traditional students.
