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 Project

Please help my math scholars. Evidence suggests that in primary school, the use of calculators is beneficial when children are taught to use them alongside other methods. These calculators will allow my studnets to tackle mathematical problems in new ways. They will be especially useful for helping pupils test their ideas and refine their thinking.

Calculators can promote the higher-order thinking and reasoning needed for problem-solving, and their strategic use can boost understanding and fluency with arithmetic operations.

These calculators will allow for mathematical exploration and experimentation and can enhance understanding of concepts and mathematical capability.
