My students are hard-working, passionate, and resilient young people who live in East Oakland. Despite facing a deluge of obstacles including poverty, homelessness, learning English, drugs, and violence, my students come to school each day excited to learn. In our class, students are engaged in activities that help them to envision and build a better future for themselves and their community. Even though there are many systems in place working to lock these students into a hopeless cycle of failure, they continually bounce back by working hard to overcome challenges they face. In science class, my students get most excited about doing experiments. Their favorites last year included making an ecosystem bottle with an earthworm, discovering the properties of water by making ice from air, and making a balloon inflate using gases released by yeast.
