Calculators for the Win

My students need Scientific Calculators to help them to prepare for their state test.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Bembenek's classroom raised $457

This project is fully funded

My Students

My seventh graders are dedicated, excited learners who range in ability. They are thrilled to learn new things and show this daily through their perseverance when they are working in class.

I believe that my students deserve that best resources that are out there!

Having the best technology available will help with math comprehension, fluency and testing. I believe that this will help my students believe in their mathematical ability to solve problems and reduce their stress while taking the state test.

My Project

By having Scientific Calculators in the hands of my students on a daily basis, my students will be able to become proficient at using the calculators to help them solve mathematical problems. As 7th graders they will be allowed to use Scientific Calculators on our state test at the end of the year. Using a calculator throughout the year to build fluency will help to prepare them for the test.

Scientific Calculators will help to build proficient mathematicians and they will help improve test scores.

It is going to be amazing to watch my students growth when using the Scientific Calculators.
