Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Having these calculators in my classroom would make a world of difference for my students. Instead of getting sidetracked by Chromebooks, they'll be able to dive right into solving complex math problems. My aim? To create a focused space during our math stations where students can work alone or team up, sharpening their computational and problem-solving skills.

Calculators are like the tools in a carpenter's belt—essential for getting the job done efficiently.

My students are amazing. They come from all sorts of backgrounds and absolutely thrive on hands-on activities. Even when things get tough, they show incredible resilience and enthusiasm. Just the other day, I watched them collaborate on a tough math puzzle, and their perseverance was inspiring.

By providing my students with calculators, I can help them zero in on the math itself. No distractions, just learning. This will empower them to reach their full potential and tackle more challenging concepts with confidence.
