Technology in and out of class

Ten Ideas for Using Instagram in the Classroom


While browsing the internet I came across an article that talked about the use of INSTAGRAM in the classroom something that I think the students of my Language Arts class will love. It will help the students to open up more and tell us about them without the use of words.... I think my students will definitely be interested in participating in this assignment.

On Your Mark, Get Set, LEARN !!!

eady to Further Your Educational Skills?


Welcome to the fun world of Ms. Fordham!
Ms. Fordham's students will learn to enjoy not only literature by the languages and thrills that comes along with it. I have high expectations that this will be an incredibly successful year for all of my students. This yer your student will be taken on an exciting journey through the world of Language Arts.  As all professional teachers I will be their tour guide to everything they will need to know about Language Arts. Students will learn everything from short stories, different types of novels, and various writing projects that they will need in order to complete the school year. I work hard and will continue to make y classroom fun and highly interactive for the student as well as myself. I believe that your student will do their part by putting forth 100% to every classroom meeting that we have together. 

The use of technology in my classroom is very important. The students will use technology to assist with being more engaged in class with the teacher and other students inside and outside of the classroom, complete assignments, play games that are course related, and build connection and communication.

The use of technology will also be used to assist the more visual learns, have a hard time reading, or that like seeing words on the big screen. General Resources


Figurative Language

Having a problem with Figurative Language???
There's an RAP for that! 







Student in Ms. Fordham's class will never have a problem with learning or remembering figurative language. Why not enjoy what you are learning. If you can remember a rhyme you are in your right state of mind.

NO EXCUSES; HELP IS HERE!!!


There are NO Excuses in Ms. Fordham's Class

HEY DO YOU NEED HELP?  Students tend to enjoy helping each other. Collaborative Writing will be a big thing for our class.  Don't know what collaborative writing is? Lets see how it is used...



with collaborative writing students will be able to go in and help each other out and share not only ideas but stories as well.

Throughout the school year the students will use various tools to assist them in and out of class. I have posted the links for the students to use when they are not on campus.
