The biggest surprise so far

 I have been in Chico, CA for a week already and it doesn't stop surprising me! A lot of things are absolutely different from those in Ukraine. Food, clothes, streets, big cars (they love big cars here, huh?😏)... But what really makes me feel like in another world is people being so friendly, kind and supportive to us. I love these people being frank, caring and warm-hearted, ready to help us adapt to the new community. They love their homeplace and do not want to move in search of a better life, they do everything to improve their life here in Chico!

Student Standards

Another student standard that I'd love to implement is a digital citizen with s tudents recognizing the rights, responsibilities and opportunities of living, learning and working in an interconnected digital world, and they act and  model  digital citizenship in ways that are safe, legal and ethical. Incorporating a digital citizen student standard into the curriculum ensures that students are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and values they need to thrive in an increasingly digital society while promoting ethical and responsible behavior online.

It introduces them to different cultures, traditions, and ways of life, helping to break down stereotypes and promote empathy and respect for diversity. Multicultural literature encourages students to critically analyze and reflect on issues such as identity, privilege, discrimination, and social justice as well as prepares students to be global citizens. I ncorporating multicultural literature into the curriculum helps students develop cultural competence—the ability to interact effectively and respectfully with people from different cultures. It's not only a m...
