  2. About Ms. Iniguez • I am Mexican American • Attended and graduated: St. Gerard Majella , Notre Dame Academy, Cal State Long Beach, and USC • At Long Beach I graduated Cum Laude (with honors), received my Bachelors degree with a major in Liberal Studies/Arts (to be a teacher), and received specializations in Bilingual Education and Math • At USC I received my Masters in Teaching with a TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certification • I hold a Multiple Subject Credential with a supplementary authorization in Math, a Single Subject Credential in Math, and a BCLAD • Have taught at Marina for11years: this will be my 12th • You can read more about me on the website • www.marinadelreyms.org

  3. Our class is based on RESPECT • We do many GROUP activities in here, and I choose who you work with and sit with. There are no comments or complaints. We all have RESPECT for each other: I for you and you for me. • Any form of disrespect will have consequences: TALLIES (Loss of DOJO points)!!!!, phone call, sent to another class, detention at nutrition or lunch, or in extreme cases sent to the Dean’s office

  4. RULES • SHOW RESPECT • Please enter the room quickly and quietly • Please sharpen your pencils during the warm-up • Please keep to yourself, try not to distract other’s learning experience in my class • Please stay seated at all times, if you need something RAISE your hand • Please keep your comments to your self and try not to interrupt when I or someone else is talking • Please come ready to learn EVERYDAY

  5. TALLIES • Tallies will be monitored for every 5 week report card and will result in the following. • 3= S in Cooperation • 6=U in Cooperation • 9= U in Cooperation + S in Work Habits • 12= U’s in BOTH Cooperation and Work Habits • Each tally earns a phone call home/DOJO message to the parent, then detention, and finally, extreme cases, the dean.

  6. Daily Routine LINE UP OUTSIDE!!!!! DO NOT BANG ON THE DOOR ! I WILL LET YOU IN WHEN I AM READY! • Come in through front door • Sit in your assigned seat • Sharpen pencils if necessary. You do NOT sharpen as I teach! • Start warm-up: homework will be checked as you complete your warm-up • When finished with warm-up copy down the night’s homework in your agenda • Start reading the section we are learning today • Go over warm-up • Lecture/Notes • Practice/Activity • Review what was learned (reflection) • Start Homework • I dismiss you NOT the bell • Exit through front door We NEVER use the back door!

  11. For this class you must have a Graph Paper NOTEBOOK!!!!! • We will take notes everyday!!!! You are to use the notes to help you with your homework! • Your notes should always have a heading, with your name, date, and topic (it makes it easier for our notebook checks). No Heading, No Credit!!!! • Please use the same colors I use on the overhead • Notes should be taken in pen BUT Homework MUST be done in PENCIL ONLY!!!!

  12. Sample Notes

  13. FRIDAY • Friday’s are special days. Formal Assessment day!!!!! We will have a Quiz/Project EVERY Friday until we reach the end of the chapter. • The quizzes are on what we learned that week, but you will also apply old material. • I will check the notebooks! And you will have an assignment to complete quietly so no one is distracted during testing.
