Mrs. McKenzie graduated from J.M. Hanks High School in El Paso, TX. She
moved to College Station, TX in order to pursue an English degree from Texas
A&M University. After graduation, Ms. Fordham received a job at Manor High
School in the fall of 2007 as a TAKS and AVID tutor, and was then hired on
as a teacher after Christmas break.
Welcome to English I! I am Mrs. McKenzie, and I am pleased to be your
English teacher for this year. During this school year, we will be adding to
the skills that you have developed during your middle school years, and
continue to fine tune your writing and grammar skills. We will be reading
several novels, poems, and short stories throughout this next year, which we
will analyze and discuss. You will also be practicing your talent for
writing through written reflections, various essays, and journaling, in
order to learn how to organize your arguments into thesis statements, and
how to give evidence to support your written assertions. Through the
development and improvement of these skills, we will be able to rock the
socks off the TAKS test!
