Tarannum Shaikh is a very energetic and talkative ten-year-old – she might even talk too much (according to her teacher)! Nevertheless, Tarannum is a great student, and she thrives in Urdu. She also says that she has gotten much better at math – a subject she used to struggle in – since entering the support class in fourth grade. She is now in fifth grade and wants her younger sister to join the class too. In addition to her younger sister, Tarannum has two brothers, and her father works in a garage. She loves eating biryani, and wants to be a teacher when she is older. Hopefully her students won’t talk as much as her!

Rubeena is a smiley ten-year-old girl. She is in fifth grade, in a Pratham support class. It is her first year, and she is loving it, because she already has many friends in the class! She finds math very difficult, but her teacher helps her a lot, and inspires her to improve her abilities. When she gets tired of math, she’ll read her Urdu book because that is her favorite subject.

Her favorite color is white and she likes cleanliness, so she wants to be a nurse when she is older because she can help others and wear a nice white dress!
