Matthew's Earlier Blog Attempts

I cannot access these two blogs, as I do not have access to the old email account or the passwords any longer. Oh well, live and learn! I created both of them in 2009.

Selected Poetry

This one is some of my poetry. If you follow the link, you will see that it says I am a widower, and at the time that was the case. I am now blessedly married to Suzanne! At any rate...

Becoming a Teacher-Author Entrepreneur Step 20: The VIDEO PREVIEW

Wow! Step 20! Really? Who knew? Perhaps it's time for a sequel to the Guide ! Perhaps, but first... VIDEO PREVIEWS Scary thing to consider doing, I know! Just did our first one today, and created a YouTube Channel, ELA in Middle School by Matthew and Suzanne Forman , and even posted said first video onto said channel! It may not be the BEST of quality, but it actually isn't the worst I've seen! And, Deb Mendoza, Lily Pad Queen of Froggy About Teaching , viewed it and said that I had to warn people, er, inform people, about how to do these! So, with as little prompting as I require having been met, here goes! The first thing you need to know is that your video preview can be as easy or as detailed as you want to make it.

Enrica, a math teacher from Genova, Italy, also authors interactive mathematics products for remote/distance learning as well as in the classroom teaching. She offers these resources through her storefronts on TeachersPayTeachers and on TheWheelEdu . Distance Learning Probability Practice Online Interactive is one of her latest creations.

It offers 20 fast review problems, perfect for students to do over summer or semester break, or as a review before an assessment. Each of the problems is set up as a word problem, with picture representations of the problems as well. Enrica takes the time to quickly review lowest common denominators without students realizing that this is happening! The fast action allows students to work through th...
