Algebra 2! It Adds Up!

My Project

We have a need for each scholar to have a calculator to be able to solve equations effectively. It is very important for scholars to have all the necessary resources to be successful. It is imperative that scholars have their own supplies.

I believe when scholars have their own materials, they will take pride in what belongs to them.

They will not only take great care of it, they will cherish and be grateful for what has been given to them. I believe this will be an experience my scholars will not soon forget.
