About Me

Marna Linnabary: Grand Prairie, Texas; I have been teaching for 19 years first in Arlington and then in Grand Prairie, Texas. I taught 2nd grade for the first 10 years of my career and have now been teaching 1st grade for the past 9 years. I am married with 3 children of my own ages 15, 12 and 9. Although it's very difficult at times to juggle a teaching career with a very busy family life, I've found that sharing ideas and sharing the load with other teachers really helps a lot. Thanks to everyone for posting and sharing on your own blogs and websites! :)
