What Makes Us Stick Together?
In this lesson, students will use a simulation to understand a macroscopic view of what occurs microscopically when two nonmetals react.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-makes-us-stick-together
Hot Molecules
In this lesson, students will observe and make predictions about the motion and pressure of the molecules of a confined gas as the temperature is increased or decreased.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hot-molecules
Properties of Magnetism
In this lesson, students will create a solenoid-type electromagnet using two different methods of coiling the wire around the core.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-magnetism
Two-Dimensional Motion and Vectors
In this lesson, students will investigate two-dimensional vectors using the simulation of a boat crossing a river.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/twodimensional-motion-and-vectors
Special Segments in Triangles
Create four special segments from a given vertex in a triangle and identify relationships among the special segments and the angles they form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/special-segments-in-triangles
Estimating a Population Proportion
Students find the confidence interval for a population proportion by first finding the critical value and the margin of error.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/estimating-a-population-proportion
Graph My Center
Students create a box plot or histogram. They will find measures of central tendency and identify which best describes the data set.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graph-my-center
Parallel Lines cut by a Transversal with Cabri Jr.
Using Cabri Jr, the students (with the teachers help) will create parallel lines cut by a transversal, measure angles, and compare the relationships of the angles formed using features of the Cabri Jr.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parallel-lines-cut-by-a-transversal-with-cabri-jr
Approximating the Area Under a Curve
In this activity, students will explore approximating the area under a curve using left endpoint, right endpoint, and midpoint Riemann sums.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/approximating-the-area-under-a-curve
Stretching Slinkies
This lesson provides students with the opportunity to explore the TI-84 graphing calculator in conjunction with Microsoft Excel®. Students will use the "Stretching Slinkies" worksheet to record and enter data. They will either: enter data into Microsoft Excel to synch with the TI-84, OR, enter da...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stretching-slinkies
Best Class
Students will create and explore a box plot and histogram for a data set. They then compare the two data displays by viewing them together and use the comparison to draw conclusions about the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/best-class
Relationship between central angle and inscribed angle measure
Students investigate the relationship between measure of central and inscribed angles in a circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/relationship-between-central-angle-and-inscribed-angle-measure
Patterns in the Periodic Table
Students will create a linear model using data from the periodic table - atomic number and atomic mass - and make predictions about "missing" or "unknown" elements.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/patterns-in-the-periodic-table
Zooooooom!
This activity uses times collected for a radio control car traveling certain distances to create a regression line to analyze and discuss as a class. If the car(s) cannot be obtained, you can use students to run the distances.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/zooooooom
Box Plots and Histograms
Students create and explore a box plot and histogram for a data set. They then compare the two data displays by viewing them together and use the comparison to draw conclusions about the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/box-plots-and-histograms
Linear Regression: Wing Span/Height
Students take measurements of individual's wing span and height and create a coordinate graph. The activity should include at least three different grade levels. Students submit an equation through "Activity Center" and the class compares the different equations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linear-regression-wing-spanheight
Graphing Systems at the Races
This activity involves solving a system of equations created from a problem I wrote about a greyhound racing to catch a toy rabbit on a mechanical arm. The ending activity involves solving a similar system, only involving another problem I wrote based on the end of a NASCAR race.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphing-systems-at-the-races
Operations of Signed Numbers( focus on vocabulary)
This activity will explore operations on integers with a focus on different vocabulary used to describe changes in signs and changes in operations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/operations-of-signed-numbers-focus-on-vocabulary
Exploring Cavalieri's Principle
Students explore Cavalieri's Principle for cross sectional area and volume.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-cavalieris-principle
Inference for Two-way Tables
Students use the chi-square test to analyze whether two categorical variables are independent or dependent calculating expected frequencies, the test statistic and the critical values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inference-for-twoway-tables
Hypothesis Testing: Means
Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size at the five-percent significance level. The test statistic is found and compared to the critical value.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hypothesis-testing-means
