My classroom is located on Whidbey Island in Oak Harbor , WA which is essentially a military town with a strong Navy presence. My students are kids who have been around the world and have had to uproot their lives every few years but in spite of all they choose to persevere and never make excuses for why things can't be done. They are faced with parents who are away for long periods of time and having to leave friends a family more often than they would like but while they are in my classroom I like for it to feel like a home away from home. A place where they can be safe and talk about their frustrations while still learning everything that 3rd graders need to know to be successful in school and life.
