Light Years Away
Students develop models for a light year and compare numbers written in scientific notation and in standard notation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-years-away
Divisibility Rules Using Scientific Calculators
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include number theory, divisibility rules, multiples, factors, and problem-solving skills.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/divisibility-rules-using-scientific-calculators
I Can Guess Your Numbers
Students use the calculator to improve their number sense, analysis, and reasoning. They find numbers, given their product.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/i-can-guess-your-numbers
Making Sense of Shapes and Sizes
Students develop algorithms for generating and generalizing patterns related to triangle and square geometric models.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-sense-of-shapes-and-sizes
Keeping up with Trash
Students use scientific notation in finding answers to real-life problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/keeping-up-with-trash
Computing by Degrees!
Students use the calculator to solve trigonometry problems using sine, cosine, and tangent. They also find inverses of trigonometric functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/computing-by-degrees
Power Patterns
Students investigate patterns that show relationships between powers and roots. They learn to identify strategies to be used to find important patterns in data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/power-patterns
Magic Nines
Students compute multiples of 9, 99, 999, and so forth, search for patterns in the products, and write generalizations of those patterns.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/magic-nines
Quilt Block Areas
Students will draw and color scaled drawings of traditional quilt block designs. They then find the appropriate fraction, decimal, and percent of the overall design for each color.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quilt-block-areas
What's So Special about 11?
Students will compute multiples of numbers in search of patterns. As a class, they'll discover patterns in multiples of 9; then they'll do the same with patterns in multiples of 11. They will then practice writing the rule for 11, both verbally and algebraically, to summarize the discovered pattern.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11_1
The Antics of Statistics
Students learn/review some of the different measures of statistics and see how to use those measures to analyze a data set. Students also participate in a discussion about how statistics can be used to achieve a variety of results.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-antics-of-statistics_1
What's Your Mileage?
Students use linear equations to model and solve real-world problems. Students also see the correlation between the graph of an equation and its calculated slope by plotting graphs by hand and then calculating slopes with the calculator and comparing.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-your-mileage
What’s Half of a Half of a Half?
Students will use a physical model to determine what happens when they repeatedly halve a piece of paper, and then they reassemble the pieces into a whole. They then use an algebraic model to analyze the same situation, which leads to an introductory discussion of limits.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-half-of-a-half-of-a-half
Find the Square Root...
Students who understand the basic concept of square roots learn how to evaluate expressions and equations that have rational and irrational solutions. Students also explore solutions to equations and investigate the differences between exact and approximate solutions using the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/find-the-square-root
Circle Around
Students compute the circumference and area of circles. They understand that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is a value (3.14) called pi.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circle-around
How Hot Is It?
Students who are familiar with the two most common standards of measuring temperature learn how to reliably convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. Students also see how order of operations is crucial in an equation, through discussion and data entry on the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-hot-is-it
