Removing Roadblocks to Solving Complex Problems

Help me give my students primary calculators which will enable them to quickly and accurately perform basic computations in order to evaluate more complex math processes to further their problem solving skills.

My Project

Due to the pandemic and other learning barriers, most of my students have never experienced a "regular" school year. Losing out on computation skills learning and practice over the years is making learning new grade level skills harder for my 7th and 8th grade students.

Removing as many barriers to learning as I can for my students allows them to focus on the learning they need for this school year.

When I can ease some of the frustration that my students are experiencing, I try my best to help them. Having access to a calculator to check the computation of basic math functions can give my students more chances to experience success and gain much-needed confidence to solve complex math problems.
