Calculators for a Math Classroom

Help me give my students a better understanding of certain math topics with the guided use of a calculator. For my classes of 20, I only have 6 calculators for them to share and many are broken.

My Project

Nowadays, students utilize calculators when completing math problems. My students are allowed to use calculators to guide them, but I only have 6 calculators for my class of 20 students to use. The calculators I have are also only basic four operation. We have talked about getting better calculators, but sadly, our budget does not allow it. We use DESMOS or share calculators often, but this provides issues during tests.

Growing up, we were always told we wouldn't have a calculator in our pocket, but as we can see, that is not the case.

When teaching math, it is encouraged that we utilize resources when needed, so I would love to have the ability to teach students how to do just that. A calculator is a need in an upper level math class, and I would love to provide those for my students. Thank you.
