I have had the hardest time bringing my own passions, ethnic studies and history , to my first grade class room. Being caught up with classroom management, being a first year teacher, and personal things made me forget to put myself in my own classroom. Today, my kiddos made their own protest signs in support of migrant workers rights and in acknowledgement of Cesar Chavez Day. It was a great feeling seeing their eyes glow up when I told them that I'd be sending their posters to the National Farm workers association. #imgettingthere #onesmallstep #teacher
