Solving Systems Using Pictures!
This activity consists of three separate problems where students have to use systems of linear equations to find the points of intersection of various objects.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solving-systems-using-pictures
Extraneous Solutions
Students will solve quadratic equations step by step graphically. They will discover that some of the equations have an extraneous solution and they will investigate at which step in solving the equation that these extra solutions appear.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/extraneous-solutions
Vernier - Freezing and Melting of Water
In this experiment, the cooling and warming behavior of a familiar substance, water, will be investigated. By examining graphs of the data, the freezing and melting temperatures of water will be determined and compared.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--freezing-and-melting-of-water_1

Martinsville Chase
In this activity, students will analyze attaching a wing to a Sprint Cup car.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/martinsville-chase
When Water "Leaves"
In this lesson, students will explore the effects of various environmental conditions on the rate of transpiration from the leaves of a plant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/when-water-leaves
Waves and Spectrum Exploration
In this lesson, students will study the relationship between wavelength, frequency, and color through an interactive simulation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/waves-and-spectrum-exploration
Where Is the Heat?
In this lesson, students will explore a simulation that visually shows the behavior of particles in a substance as the temperature changes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/where-is-the-heat
Barometric Pressure - Simulated Data Analysis
In this lesson, students will use a simulation to collect data points through Hurricane Katrina, save the data in a spreadsheet and then analyze the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/barometric-pressure--simulated-data-analysis
Changing States
In this lesson, students will see the behavior of particles in a substance as the temperature changes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/changing-states
Plane Mirrors
In this lesson, students will investigate the relationship between an object and its image in a plane mirror. Understanding how plane mirrors work provides a useful scaffold for understanding more complex situations, such as those involving concave and convex mirrors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/plane-mirrors
Concave Mirrors
In this lesson, students will explore the reflection of a movable object in a concave mirror.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/concave-mirrors
Sound and Waves
In this lesson, students change characteristics of a sine wave to discover the frequency, amplitude, and phase shift. They will also use these properties to see the effect of adding two waves to form dampening and beats.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sound-and-waves
Recipe for a Living World
In this lesson, students will observe the effects of light intensity and wavelength on the rate of photosynthesis in a plant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/recipe-for-a-living-world
