I didn't realize how much more I had to do before I could actually get these calculators ready to be used. I initially asked for 30. I should have asked for a few more in case they break over time. I also didn't think about needing a place to store them between classes. I had to buy something off of Amazon. One good thing was that I contacted the manufacturer about my project and they sent me two charging strips so multiple calculators can be charged at once. The last thing was that each calculator needed to be updated individually, which was very time consuming. \r\n\r\nI started using them on 11/10/26. Many of my students already say they like them a lot. A few did say that they prefer the other ones. I encouraged them to give these a chance because change is sometimes uncomfortable and needs time. I explained the Donor's Choose concept and told them I needed to photograph them using the calculators. I assured them that no faces would be shown. There were no objections so I gave them an assignment and circulated the room with my phone to take pictures of them in action. \r\n\r\nWe still have to give it more time, but I think they will like it and benefit from this going forward. Thank you so much to everyone who made this possible.","fullyFundedDate":1791168957972,"projectUrl":"project/math-students-need-the-right-math-tools/10333553/","projectTitle":"Math Students Need The Right Math Tools, Calculators!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Yam","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10529693_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1781212357523","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10529693"},{"teacherId":7473152,"projectId":10234622,"letterContent":"Our students were absolutely thrilled to have supersized lawn games and bubbles for their 8th grade field day!

These resources gave our students the opportunity to work together as a team, build friendships, and create lasting memories during their final days of 8th grade.\r\nThroughout field day, students practiced teamwork, communication, and good sportsmanship while enjoying some much-needed fun with their classmates. It was wonderful to see them laughing, encouraging one another, and celebrating their time together before moving on to high school.\r\nThanks to your generosity, we were able to make this special milestone even more memorable.
