Happy Friday! Today I am linking up with the wonderful Stephanie from Flying into First who is hosting the Meet the Teacher Blogger linky party. I have LOVED getting to know some more about my fellow blogging friends with this link up. Here is a little bit about me….
My Name is Layla. I turned the big 3-0 this July. This is my 8th year teaching. I have taught grades 4th-7th including a combo class. The challenge of a combo class was not as scary as 7th graders! I have been displaced and moved all around the district and this coming year I am nervous excited to start at a new school teaching my favorite grade- 4th!

My husband is a teacher too! Sadly, I'm the only redhead so I don't think ginger babies are in our future….but I hope so!!!!

I love the whole class journals! Unfortunately I am a pull-out small group teacher so I don't have a whole class to journal 🙁
I Love Common Core says
Hey there, I'm in So Cal too! AND I love red heads. True story, my whole life I've wished I was one and I've been known to date them. Sadly brown hair+brown hair = brown hair for my babies because I ended up marrying someone with the exact same hair color as me. Although, secretly I'm hoping there's some sort of genetic fluke and I get my ginger baby.
Layla Wiedrick Henry says
Yay! SoCal Teachers unite! Both my husband and me are the only ones in our families with red hair…. so your fluke may happen!!!
Erica says
You are such an adorable family of gingers! And just to tell you a little secret (since I'm teaching 2nd grade this year), 4th grade is my favorite, too!
