Attending to Precision

Help me give my students stylus pens to write with precision during math class.

My Project

The stylus pens will allow our students to efficiently respond to online platforms that require them to show their work such as Seesaw and Pear Jam. In a math class, precision is important. This tool will help us line up our equations, ease the illustration process for showing our work, and respond more efficiently to teacher's open ended questioning.

Mathematicians attend to precision!

Securing two class sets of stylus pens will help us to continue to engage the 21st century learner in a meaningful way. Teachers will be able to check out a class set of stylus for classroom use. Instead of putting the pencil to the paper, we are putting the stylus to the screen to enhance learning for students.
