They May All be DIfferent, but I Am Proud to Call Each One my Student

In my class of 22 students, the ethnicity and racial make up was predominantly caucasian. Although this was the main make up, it was not limited to this race. I had 4 black students in one of my classes with 1 Hispanic child and 1 Native American. There is a small amount of diversity but that does not stop the interaction within the groups of friendships. The students get along very well for the most part. Each student has a different personality that can mesh completely with another student. Outside of the classroom the students are always talking and laughing and I only heard one or two big arguments during the time I was there. Along with the students inside the classroom I also saw a lot of positive interaction between different classes and all grades of children. The younger kids in the school seem to really look up to the older ones and try to feel a part of their groups and friendships. 

In my cooperating class there were quite a few students who would get called out of class in order to work privately or in small groups with a reading tutor or math tutor. From what i could tell the students already knew who went at what time and who they would be going to for help. The kids always seem excited to go to these sessions and would always come back with a positive attitude and what seemed to be more confidence. Although there were many different types of students in my class, they all seemed to get along and work together, helping to create a positive atmosphere.
