NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Take Out" - No Fly Zone
In "Take Out", a series of restaurant robberies prompts the FBI to ask Charlie to help predict the restaurant most likely to be targeted next. Charlie says that it can be thought of like a spider catching its prey in a web. Even the best constructed web can not catch all insects. There exist regi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--take-out--no-fly-zone
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Spree, Part II - Daughters" - Galton Board
In this activity, students will study Galton boards. A Galton board is a vertical or inclined board with a series of staggered pins arranged in a triangle. As balls are dropped from the top of the board, they strike the pins and will fall either to the left or to the right and eventually land in ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--spree-part-ii--daughters--galton-board
Exploring Hurricane Strength
In the activity, we explore multiple regression equations among Saffir-Simpson Scale, Pressure, Wind Speed, and Storm Surge of hurricanes. We relate our models to Hurricane Katrina, Gustav, and Ike.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-hurricane-strength
Antennas
Describes how to perform basic antenna and radiation calculations with the TI-89. Antenna patterns, radiation resistance, radiation integrals, and phased array patterns are included.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/antennas
Lifting a Lion
In this activity, students will practice solving a real-world problem. Using a toy lion and a lever, students first discover how much work is needed to raise a toy lion. They will then use proportions to determine the force needed to lift a real lion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lifting-a-lion
In the Range
Students will interpret the rounding involved in measuring to identify the possible range of a given measurement.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/in-the-range
Helping Hands
Students make their own finger signs for the numbers from zero to ten. Students relate each finger sign to its number name and numeral. They use the numeral keys and scrolling feature of the TI-10 to enhance the concrete-symbol connection and sequencing of numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/helping-hands
Food for Thought
Students learn to count in tens up to 100. They also learn to build 2-digit numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/food-for-thought
Double Your Design
Students learn to use pattern blocks to investigate symmetry by building a design, making its mirror image, and using the calculator to determine the value of both the design made and its reflection.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/double-your-design
Data Analysis and Probability
Students explore the basics in data analysis and probability.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/data-analysis-and-probability
