Having use of calculators in a classroom is a great way for students to be able to visualize math operations they have already performed, to check work (perform inverse operations), and for hands-on activities. In secondary grades, calculators are not meant as a substitute for learned skills to perform math operations, but a tool that can be applied to see patterns quickly after learned skills are applied (converting fractions to decimals, powers of ten, etc.). When secondary students enter middle school, they should already understand the basics of operating a calculator within normal math operations.
