My Project
Please help give my class a set of scientific calculators to help aid them in stations on energy, density, speed, velocity, and more. The students need calculators for stations, escape rooms, online and in person labs, and more. Math and Science go hand in hand, so we do a lot of math! Also, student have a homeroom period in which they can read, study, and get help with homework. My students are always doing math homework in homeroom and are in need of calculators. Thanks for supporting my students and class
