Hello. my name is Andie Federico I am a freshman at UMass Lowell, taking the course for my licenser to become an elementary school teacher. I worked with a company that formed an after-school club called drama kids, that focused on giving kids confidence and building their imagination through acting. 

I believe that in the classroom all kids should feel safe and welcome in the classroom, and be more focused on learning than grades. One way I would do this is by greeting the kids individually and saying good morning to them.
