Mrs. (Lopez) Hipple's Geometry Class, 9th Grade, Periods 2, 3, and 5: new schedule

Thursday, January 7, 2010

new schedule

I have printed out a new schedule for our lessons and exams this month. After some consideration, it was best to push the quiz once more and just schedule it on one of the days that I will be gone. I will have more days to cover important material and you will have more time to study.

I will be at a FABULOUSLY fun math conference in San Francisco next Wednesday to Friday. Then Monday is a holiday, so I will see you again on Tuesday the 19th. I will post the sessions/talks I attend at this conference daily...just in case you're interested!

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.
