Most of my students call me Mr. Aaron, Mr. It, or Mr. Iturralde, it doesn’t matter. I have been teaching for about 25 years. I was a native born in Chicago and moved to Michigan around 1975. I graduated from Michigan University for a master’s degree in teaching. I also studied forensic and drama as minors at Michigan State University. I have taught many grades from elementary, middle school, and high school. I had taught math and social studies mainly. This year I am excited to be teaching 8th grade American History.

Attendance and Hall Passes Your school planner is your hallway pass. You will not be permitted to leave the classroom during the class period if you do not have your planner. You may only use a hall pass when absolutely necessary and at appropriate times. To use a hall pass at those times, you must fill out all parts of your planner, and I will sign it. I will record your class attendance as ABSENT if you are not in class. I will record your class attendance as TARDY if you arrive to class after the tardy bell rings. I will record your class attendance as TARDY UNEXCUSED if you arrive to class 5 or more minutes after the tardy bell, and this will count as an unexcused absence. Please refer to the EMS Student Handbook for further information about the number of absences allowed in a class and absence reporting.

Grading 80% of your grade is based on your mastery of state standards, as demonstrated on Summative Assessments. Formative Assessments, such as homework assignments and daily activities are worth 20% of your grade, and are important assignments, as they are designed to help you prepare for instruction or practice and perfect the skills upon which the standards are based.   Example Purpose Grading Formative Assessment Guided Reading Activities, Cornell Notes, Graphic Aid Interpretation Activities, Projects, Essays, Presentations, etc. To introduce new content and skills, to prepare for discussion, to reinforce previously learned content and skills. FORMATIVE ASSESSMENTS (20% OF THE FINAL GRADE): Homework, Daily Assignments, Graphic Aid Interpretation Activities, and similar assignments will earn a letter grade based upon the percentage of points earned. Minor Projects, Essays, and Presentations. Summative Assessment Culminating Projects, Section Quizzes, Chapter Tests, and Unit Assessments To demonstrate mastery of content and skills required by Michigan standards. SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENTS (80% OF THE FINAL GRADE) Section Quizzes, vocabulary and essay question Chapter Tests, multiple choice and graphic aid interpretation Unit Tests, multiple choice over several chapters Culminating Projects

Grading Grading System EXTRA CREDIT – There is NO extra credit. IMPROVING GRADES: While there is no extra credit offered, show mastery of the state standards by scoring 80% or above on a chapter test, and quiz grades leading up to the chapter test will be dropped if it is in your favor. Grading Grading System A+ A A- B+ B B- C+ C C- D+ D D- E 100% 99%-93% 92%-90% 89%-88% 87%-83% 82%-80% 79%-78% 77%-73% 72%-70% 69%-68% 67%-63% 62%-60% 59%-0%

Late and Absent Work Absent Work Late Work If you miss class, it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to find out what you missed. You can find out what we did by checking my class Weebly (http://124aai08g.weebly.com/). I will post the agenda, warm-ups, and assignments. If you have questions, I will be more than happy to help you, but you must see me BEFORE or AFTER class. If you were assigned a long-term assignment such as an essay or a project, or if you were told in advance about a quiz or a test, being absent does not delay the work’s due date. If you are absent on a due date, you must turn the work in immediately upon your return. Any work missed during UNEXCUSED absences cannot be made up for credit. It is expected that all assignments will be turned in ON TIME. If not, students will receive partial credit. Assignments will be accepted with 10% of points earned deducted for each school day late, down to a minimum of 50% credit. This means, if the assignment is 5 days late, you will earn 50% of the credit earned. In the online grade book. I record all assignments that are not turned in on time as MISSING and as a ZERO until turned in. For major assignments and essays, I also contact parents.

LET'S MAKE IT A GREAT YEAR!!!  QUESTIONS? DON’T HESITATE TO ASK.
