I am a Pre-algebra and Algebra teacher at a school that would be considered Title I, which means 60% of our students are on free or reduced price lunch. A majority of my kids are from low socioeconomic families with single mothers or living with grandparents or they are homeless. Despite these disadvantages my students strive to do their best and are eager to learn. My students lack access to modern technology. As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school, my students struggle to reach their full potential, due to a lack of modern technology and supplies that could provide them with opportunities to enrich their learning, though they have the fundamental skills needed to learn.
