Math is always the subject most students hate. I know there is always the debate of students using calculators, but in my expereince, it it actually helps the students with confidence in their learning. Students still have to understand the process in order to use the calculator to solve the problem. I want to take away any barriers that is keeping my students from being successful in math. Unfortunately, school budgets are not able to provide the necessary materials for our students. I am hoping that a donor will see what I see, that every kid can learn math no matter what, and want to be apart of that goal.
