Layla Henry- Fancy Free in 4th- Blog

Fancy Ideas for the Everyday Classroom

Made it Monday

By

Proud Masters in Education

I met one of my best friends on the first day of my teaching credential program.  We did our undergrad at the same university, but didn’t really become friends until we were in the student teacher trenches.  We completed our Masters in Education together and even taught at the same school our very first year.  Not only has she been an amazing friend, but she was the one who not only inspired but encouraged me to start my own blog.

So, for my very first Made it Monday, I wanted to make some business cards for her since she is going to the “I Teach K” kinder conference in Las Vegas next week and I know she will be networking up a storm.

Thanks to Zazzle.com and their user friendly, cute design options and budget friendly prices, I give you a sneak peak at the final product.

Thank you Michelle Griffo! I love you.

PS. Thank you 4th Grade Frolics for hosting this Link Party!

  14. Layla- Thanks for coming by my blog. I am so excited to find another teacher who is looping! Have you done it before? I swore I would never teach 5th grade at my school but I just loved my 4th graders last year that when my principal asked my partner teacher and I if we would loop we jumped up and down with excitement! I just became your newest follower so I will keep in touch and we can compare notes as the school year starts and progresses!
