Graphing calculators will open up the possibilities of bringing in more interactive and exploratory learning for my students. The calculators will be used by students in all of my class hours, and across multiple content levels to support the mathematics being taught in the class. For example, when covering statistics, students could collect and store their own data to find a relationship between their height and foot size, and students could develop a deeper understanding of quadratic functions as they develop a model to represent the flight of a basketball using a picture downloaded to the graphing calculator. I have amazing students that are eager to learn and I want them to have the tools to help them succeed. This grant will empower students to take on sophisticated mathematics and make sense of the world in mathematical ways. Graphing calculators help students in visualizing mathematics when they are able to see all the multiple representations on the calculators: graphs, geometry, algebra, and tables. This technology helps students make sense of problems and deepen their understanding so they can feel more confident and assured in their experiences and in their math abilities! Technology is intertwined everywhere in our real world and we want to bring it into the classroom. In a school where not all students can afford graphing calculators, it would mean so much to be able to provide this opportunity to my students.
