GETTING STARTED
The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and many other organizations with a
commitment to the mathematics education of our youth have all given their support to
the ongoing and appropriate use of calculators. In this document, con
vincing arguments
for the ongoing use of calculators to enhance the mathematical capabilities of students
at all grade levels are presented as well as a description of the features expected to be
available on calculators. The EL

students to enter equations as they are seen in their textbooks.
ACTIVITY AND PRACTICE SHEETS
The fifteen calculator activities and practice sheets found in this book have been
designed to be used with the Sharp EL
-
W535B calculator. T
he activities have been
written and developed for students in grades nine through twelve. Some of the activities
will be more appropriate for students in a particular grade, while others could be used at
any grade level. Of course, the classroom teacher
can and should make the decision as
the appropriateness of each activity.
Each activity page has an objective statement and some practice key strokes. The
activity page does not attempt to teach mathematics. It only identifies the mathematics
being used
and demonstrates the calculator key strokes necessary to conduct a
calculation. The practice page provides activities for the students to practice using the
key strokes presented on the activity page. Answers to the activity and practice sheets
are prov
ided at the end of this booklet.
