Interactive Math Manipulations with Graphing Handhelds - Part 5

My students need TI Nspire CX graphing handhelds and index cards

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Stern (retired)'s classroom raised $966

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students have come into high school behind grade level. But these students are not quitters. We have a strong culture of achievement,and encourage all students to prepare for and apply to college.

Were you to walk down the halls of my school, you might think you are in the United Nations.

We have students from five continents (and more than that number of islands) representing a diverse array of languages and cultures. My students are a mix of new immigrants and native born Americans. All of them want to succeed.

My Project

Some years ago, I was fortunate enough to receive a classroom set of the original TI-Nspire calculators. But after these years with heavy use, they show signs of wear and most need to be replaced. This new model has color, a backlit screen (easier to see relationships) and a rechargeable battery (easier on the environment). I need to replace my old class set with the new units for the new school year. Instruction is more efficient when everyone is working with the same technology. (I have split the whole project into several smaller requests. This is the fifth of those requests) I am also requesting some 3x5 index cards.

The goal that drives all my lesson planning is student success.

I've seen how effective the Nspire graphing handheld calculator is in helping students to internalize and fully understand abstract mathematical concepts and relationships. Your contribution will help even the playing field for my students, so they can achieve to their potential in mathematics in high school, and beyond in college.
