Texas Instruments Back to School #STEMchat Twitter Party (Tuesday, 9/16, 9 pm ET)

This is a sponsored post

Every parent wants their child to be as successful as possible and in order to do so, we need to arm them with the right tools. I’m a firm believer that kids need the right technology to be successful students and a calculator that allows them to visualize problems in color is a must-have for when they get older. As a former teacher, I know that all kids learn differently. Some learn best through paper and pencil tasks while others require auditory or visual stimulation.

The colorful new TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition is a graphing calculator that has a high resolution, full color backlit display, and rechargeable battery that can help solidify STEM concepts for any student, but especially visual learners.

Join me and sponsor Texas Instruments this Tuesday, September 16 at 9 pm ET to talk STEM inspiration and for a chance to win a TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition!

The new TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition is available at these fine retailers, but you can enter to win one for free. Actually, Texas Instruments is giving away a total of three calculators.

1. Enter The Maker Mom’s pre-STEMchat giveaway.
2. Join the Twitter chat for another chance to win.
3. During the chat and for a few hours afterward, you’ll have another chance to enter on The Maker Mom.
