While many people use technology in their daily lives, the way we use it in schools can be unique and incredibly impactful. These calculators are far more than basic tools for arithmetic; they're helping our students visualize complex math concepts, explore data, and make connections that deepen their understanding. Each day, students are learning to use new features, from graphing multiple equations at once to analyzing tables and calculating regressions. These skills are critical for success in higher-level math and science courses. \r\n\r\nWhat excites our students most about the TI-84calculators is the ability to see math come to life. When they input an equation and immediately see the graph, it's like a lightbulb goes on. They love being able to experiment and instantly see the results of their thinking. Features like the table function and statistical analysis tools have opened up new ways for them to explore patterns and problem-solve, and it's transforming how they engage with the material. The calculators are turning abstract concepts into something they can truly interact with. \r\n\r\nSeveral students, in particular, have really taken to the new technology. One student, who previously struggled with visualizing functions, now regularly uses the zoom and trace features to understand how equations behave. Another student, who's interested in probability, is learning to use the calculator's probability functions to learn more about experimental probability. Something they discovered entirely on their own, thanks to your donation. It's inspiring to see them not only use the tools but also become curious and confident learners because of them. Your support is truly making a lasting difference in their education.","fullyFundedDate":1748035837703,"projectUrl":"project/empowering-every-student-with-equal-acce/9106976/","projectTitle":"Empowering Every Student with Equal Access to Essential Math Tools","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Skaggs","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8640664"},{"teacherId":8370775,"projectId":9233266,"letterContent":"Through your generosity, the CdS Library continues to improve its selections for students' independent reading.

Your kindness and dedication to supporting education have made a profound impact on the lives of my students, and for that, we are deeply thankful.\r\nThanks to your support, over 150 high school students will have access to these essential tools that will enable them to thrive in their mathematics education. The calculators will be available for students to borrow and use daily in all math courses, giving them the opportunity to engage more fully with the material and practice the skills they need to succeed. In mathematics, particularly in high school, a calculator is not just a convenience, it is a tool that facilitates understanding and mastery of complex concepts, from algebra to calculus. Your donation is providing our students with a resource that will empower them to reach their full potential and confidently tackle the challenges in their coursework.\r\nBut your generosity doesn't stop in today's classroom. The impact of these calculators will be felt far beyond this academic year. As students use them daily, they will not only develop the skills they need for high school graduation but also lay the groundwork for their futures. Whether they choose to pursue higher education, enter a technical field, or explore a trade, there is a strong possibility that they will continue to use the very same calculators in their post-secondary studies or professional careers. The TI-84 is a standard tool in many STEM-related fields, and by equipping our students with this technology now, you are giving them the confidence and familiarity they need to succeed in the future.\r\nThe ripple effect of your contribution extends beyond the individual students who will use these calculators. Your donation is helping to build a more equitable learning environment for all students, regardless of their background or financial resources. Many of our students face challenges in accessing the tools and resources they need to succeed in school. By providing these calculators, you have leveled the playing field, ensuring that all students have an equal opportunity to succeed in mathematics and beyond.\r\nThe educational journey is never undertaken alone, and it is only through the generosity and support of people like you that we are able to provide students with the resources they need to excel. You have given not only a physical tool, but a profound gift that will continue to benefit these students for years to come. The lessons they will learn, the skills they will develop, and the confidence they will gain from having access to these calculators will have a lasting impact on their lives.\r\nThank you, once again, for your support and for your belief in the potential of every student.
