My students need calculators so that we can continue to partake in STEM projects in our classroom.

Celebrating 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 are hard workers who strive to be and do their best. My students walk in daily with a smile on their face, ready to face the difficulties of science that I throw at them. Though the topics we discuss are difficult for them, they still strive to be successful.
My students try their hardest to be successful, but they sometimes lack the tools to reach their fullest potential.
Being at a Title I school with students who come from many different backgrounds and cultures, I strive to open their eyes to whatever interests them, so that they can be successful in their future.
My Project
Having a classroom set of calculators will ensure we can continue to maximize our learning. 8th grade science curriculum states that the students are learning about physics, which means a great deal of math.
Moreover, we are transitioning to include more STEM activities in the classroom, and you can't have STEM without the M for Mathematics!
Engineering includes taking measurements and calculating for various scenarios. Having calculators readily available to the students in my classroom means a wider variety of learning can take place in the classroom, without having to borrow from other teachers who need their calculators just as much.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
