Calculating Confidence

Help me give my students standard scientific calculators for classroom and testing usage, but mostly confidence in their math abilities.

My Project

Help build mathematical computing confidence in my students by gifting a classroom set of the same scientific calculators so that we can all learn together on the same calculator. Saving precious classroom time and keeping engagement high.

Calculators will be helping to teach students math skills, life

skills, and instilling confidence in their mathematics abilities.

These calculators have been strategically selected because they can be used in our general classrooms for teaching but also taken along for high standards testing. Having this dual purpose will give students the boost of confidence they need when taking mathematics tests.
