Each week we honor a teacher in the valley who's making a difference. This week we visit Daily Charter School in Fresno.
Another day and another chance to learn here in Linda Garduno's classroom at Daily Charter School.
"We don't have limitations and so we have the freedom to have inquiry based teaching time to explore time to write," says Garduno.
Garduno has been teaching for 10 years now and says the best way to connect with students is to remember just how capable they are.
"They're people, have hearts and minds and are people, we're careful about their age, but yet we like to stretch them and that's exciting part about teaching at daily."
Mrs. Garduno says while her students are each very unique they all have one thing in common; their passion and desire to learn.
"They're so excited about whats gonna happen tomorrow like they don't want to miss school, we let them figure it out what we're studying," she says.
When it comes to their teacher, Mrs. Garduno's kids are quick to list off the things that make her special.
Says one student, "she teaches us very well doesn't even seem like we're learning, even though we're learning so much."
"She helps us prepare for the real world when we get older, she inspires me."
