[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the students at our HS were instructed not to use graphing calculators for Honors Geometry or Algebra I last year, they are supposed to use a program on the laptops handed out by the school. Well, guess what? Today was the practice PSAT and no one had a calculator. I would bet that even the kids who had one don’t know how to use it. I hope the ten graders taking the real PSAT had calculators and know how to use them! C’mon MCPS - do we really want to discourage using the calculators that are REQUIRED for a portion of the PSAT? I know the calculators are expensive, but can we find a way to provide them to everyone? Pretty sure they used to do that before covid. Not as sure about calculators for the SAT, but the PSAT is also important![/quote] Not an MCPS issue-- an issue with your school. Our school sent out a specific note over the weekend about bringing pencils, calculator, etc. Did your not even tell you to bring #2 pencils?[/quote]
