This month finds me staying in Madison during the week and going to the suburbs of Milwaukee for the weekend. I find myself torn between home and where I am. It is an interesting dilemma. It makes me wonder if students feel the same dilemma between their first language and their second language. Does one seem like home while the other is just where they are at for the moment?
In order to embrace Madison I am trying to explore it and engage it bit by bit. Madison is so different from where I am from, so I am trying to find ways to learn about this community. A school system reflects its community, and in order to understand my students, I need to understand more about Madison.
