Mrs. (Lopez) Hipple's Geometry Class, 9th Grade, Periods 2, 3, and 5: Fri 01/08/10

Friday, January 8, 2010

Fri 01/08/10

HW: Handout, 2-sided. One side contains a practice quiz for sections 7-1 to 7-3. The other side practices the postulate and theorems of section 7-3.

Note: Proof #4 on Practice 7-3 will take about 4 steps.

ALSO: there is a typo on the 2nd given in proof #5: segment EC is perpendicular to segment BD. This is a short proof too.

If you need a copy of the new, updated test schedule, email me.

Have a nice weekend!

About Tania Lopez Hipple

I love math!!! By the way, I had a baby May 26, 2010 (William, little Will) and he is doing great! This is my 9th year teaching math and my 2nd year at TPA. I have been teaching geometry at least twice a day since 2004 so it is a math subject I know inside and out!

In 2000, I received my B.S. from UCLA for Applied Math and a minor in French. I love languages. I'm fluent in Spanish too. I was born in El Salvador and have lived in Los Angeles since 1981, when I was 5...are you doing some math yet? I was always good at math, so this definitely helped my interest in the subject. I actually applied to colleges as a math major because I couldn't think of another subject I could dedicate a few years to and not be bored! I had no idea I was going to be a teacher until 2001. I got a job teaching 8th grade algebra and was suddenly thrown into the world of the Los Angeles Unified School District. After 2 years, it hit me like a ton of bricks! I love teaching. I want to teach math forever! So the following year I earned my teaching credential and a masters in Multicultural Education from National University. It's now 2004 and I finally got to teach at the high school level. I worked at Birmingham High school until the day I literally got into my car and drove to Tempe- the Friday of the last day of the Fall semester this year, February 6, 2009.
