Meet the Teacher Blogger Linky!

August 15, 2014 By fancyfreein4th

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!

This past 4th of July, my husband and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary… we are both red heads 🙂 and he is a teacher too!
First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes…

Three little words that describe you.

It’s your birthday and you can invite anyone (dead or living) to the party. Who are you inviting?

If someone wrote a book about your life, what would be the title?
Me Being Me


You get to pick one superpower. What is it?
Not needing to sleep

What is your favorite quote or saying?

“There are far, far better things ahead than anything we leave behind.” CS Lewis

If you had to sing one song on American Idol, what would it be?

Are you a morning person or a night owl?
I used to be a night owl but now I’m more of a morning person.

What’s your favorite resource that you’ve created in your TPT shop?
I am really excited about my new Whole Class Journals Bundle.  

Share something we might not know about you.

    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 🙁

    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.

    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!
