Mrs. Peters from Bronx NY is requesting instructional technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
Help me give my students Graphing Calculators to support them during class and the Regents examinations.
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My students are high school students primarily from the Bronx, a diverse population of students.
My students have varying levels of abilities when it comes to academics but they all have something at which they excel.
My school encourages the development of the arts and students find a place here where they are able to express themselves creatively.
Our school is located in an area defined as a low socioeconomic neighborhood and many times students have not been given the same opportunities or exposure as their peers in other neighborhoods. Even with that disadvantage, however, my students are eager and ready to learn and prove themselves as valuable parts of their community.
Graphing calculators are an extremely necessary part of an Algebra 1 curriculum and class, students must practice extensively with the calculator to truly understand how to manipulate this tool during the state regents examination.
My students are noticeably more successful when they are able to practice in-depth with the tools they will be using during testing.
The calculators I am requesting are an important part of my students' ability to be successful in the Algebra 1 and unfortunately because of cost and large class size we rarely have enough for 1:1 calculators. Hopefully this project will help bridge the gap.
