Poverty is a true and difficult element in many people's lives, and it can drastically affect children in so many ways. Even though money has not always been plentiful in my life, I am still thinking that I always had people who loved me, treated me well, cared for me, I had shelter and food and knew I was safe. As a teacher, I tried to show genuine compassion and empathy as well as creating a learning environment where students felt "safe". I tried to value each student and build upon their strengths while realizing their struggles. I was able to connect with nearly all of my students, some who did live in poverty situations and try to make each one feel important and valuable.

I really liked the journal responses after each section- it really helped me apply to what I was reading.

Hoping for more detailed examples, stories, and/or ways to assist children in classrooms who are experiencing poverty and homelessness. I feel this hit upon the basics, I was hoping for more in depth.
