My Project

This year I will be teaching Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. For these courses, graphing calculators are essential.

It is important that all students in my classroom have their own graphing calculators that they are able to use throughout the year.

While I am asking my students to bring their own graphing calculators to class, I know that a handful of my students will not be able to afford one, so I want to ensure I have backup graphing calculators in the classroom.

My goal is that all students are able to figure out, 'What exactly is Ms. Hottle plotting?' and these calculators will help that!
