My students in Kindergarten are energetic English Language learners. My classroom is an all ESOL class and all my students are ready to learn! I am excited to be teaching them this year and could not be blessed with a better group. Our school is a Title I school where 100% of the students receive free lunch. This means that we are a low-income school and as such, our resources are rather low. As many of my student's parents do not speak English, my students don't get as much assistance at home, so the time they spend in my classroom are truly precious and vital in their learning. I am a second year kindergarten teacher in a low-income school and as such, it is challenging to have certain resources that are hands-on and truly beneficial to my students! My students inspire and motivate me everyday and I am excited about their journey in learning English.
