My school is beginning to use the innovative Desmos Middle School curriculum and students will be using the laptops on a daily basis to access this online curriculum. This curriculum was designed with the belief that all students are great mathematical thinkers, but that not all students feel they are great mathematical thinkers in math classrooms. This curriculum invites students to play with the mathematics, to test out their ideas and draw their own conclusions. It invites students to be wrong and build on their wrong answers. It invites students to think about solving problems in different ways. Put simply, it invites students to show their intriguing and truly amazing mathematical thinking. These laptops will make accessing this curriculum possible!
