Ms. Grottker’s Classroom Edit display name

I teach in a Fourth Grade classroom. My students attend a multi-ethnic school, Title One school. The school offers a pre-K program, and many classes are bilingual. There are very few after school activities for the students in the neighborhood (not even a park!), and most students come from homes where parents work two jobs. Like many such students, they struggle academically. Many are visual and tactile learners who need practice in acquiring new skills. The students in my classroom come from a diverse population of learners and ethnicities. The students do not have a lot of opportunities for after school programs outside of school.
