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.

My Project

The primary goal of this project is to enhance the learning experience and mathematical proficiency of middle school students by equipping them with TI 30X calculators. These calculators will aid in teaching various math concepts, including algebra, geometry, and data analysis, enabling students to better understand and apply mathematical principles. By providing each student with a TI 30X calculator it will enhance individual learning by allowing continuous hands-on practice, improve problem-solving skills and mathematical understanding and it will ensure fair and equal access to necessary learning tools during lessons and tests.
