Students need to have access to calculators to be successful. The seventh grade math curriculum is fast paced and unlike in the past, we are not pretending students will not and do not have access to calculators in their futures. We do however need to ensure that students understand how to use them and what they are calculating with them. Seventh graders have the opportunity to study percents, taxes, interest rates, ratios and proportions, expressions and equations, statistics and probability, etc. In the past, we have been able to share calculators with our neighbors or table partners, however for students health and safety, I am looking for a class set of calculators that I will be able to clean and sanitize between classes. I am also hoping to be able to check out and take home with them in order to be successful while outside of school as well. Your donation in support of student calculators will not only help the 120 students I have this year, but will help ensure students are receiving a quality education for years to come.
