Class Experience

Hey, Fortnite Squad! Are you ready to put your writing skills to the ultimate test? In this class, we will learn (or review, if you have already learned) different figurative language elements... FORTNITE STYLE!

Whether you are a figurative language newbie or experienced in this style of writing, this class is for you! We will begin by introducing  ourselves to each other (you may bring a Fortnite object or share something you would like about the game). We will then learn about the different styles of figurative language through fun, Fortnite-themed slides. Don't worry- I won't be doing all of the talking! There will be plenty of time to collaborate and share your own ideas with your peers. We will be using *Google Docs to work together, so please make sure you have the ability to open another tab up during class. *The last part of class will be dedicated to creating YOUR OWN Fortnite poem! I will be creating a poem right along side you. There will be time at the end of class for those that would like to share their writing.

Notes: 
*To use Google Docs, you must have a Google account. It is free to use.

*Students take ownership of their writing and enjoy making their creations very detailed. Therefore, poems may not be fully completed by the end of class- but that's okay! You will have the tools and knowledge to continue to complete your poem after class. Be sure to share your finished poem with us on our classroom page!
Learning Goals
By the end of class, students will be able to apply their understanding of different figurative language elements into their own writing.

Hello, scholars! πŸ‘‹ My name is Marissa Merrill, and I'm a certified elementary teacher with a bachelor's degree in elementary education and an endorsement in reading development (Pre K - 12). πŸŽ“ I hold an active state teaching license and am a TESOL (Teaching English as a Second Language) certified instructor! πŸ‘©β€πŸ«

With over 6 years of experience teaching in-person and virtual classrooms, I've had the pleasure of working with all grades, ranging from Pre K to 5th. 🍎 I am passionate about creating a positive and engaging learning environment where every student can thrive! 🌈

I believe that education is the key to unlocking endless possibilities for our future generations. πŸ—οΈ I strive to inspire my students to become lifelong learners and to help them develop the skills they need to succeed both in and out of the classroom. ✊

When I'm not teaching, you can find me out on the golf course πŸŒοΈβ€β™€οΈ, exploring new places ✈️, or trying out new recipes πŸͺ in the kitchen. I believe in living life to the fullest and bringing that same energy and enthusiasm to my classroom. 🀩
