Toying with a Walk
This lesson involves collecting time data as a walker moves at a constant pace.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/toying-with-a-walk
Angles for a Solution
This lesson involves looking at several sketches of intersecting lines and determining the measures of the missing angles using the facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/angles-for-a-solution
Box Plot Comparison
In this activity, students will create dot plots and box-and-whisker plots of the temperatures of three different cities along the United States' East Coast: Caribou, Maine, Washington, DC, and Tampa, Florida. Students will make dot plots for each city and compare the representations to one ano...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/box-plot-comparison
Addition and Subtraction of Rational Numbers: Part 2
This lesson involves representing addition and subtraction of signed mixed numbers on a number line for a randomly generated target sum or difference.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/addition-and-subtraction-of-rational-numbers-part-2
The Pentagon Problem
This activity provides a simple, virtual "geoboard" that allows students to manipulate the polygon displayed on a unit grid. The grid squares provide a visual means of finding area.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-pentagon-problem
Addition and Subtraction of Rational Numbers: Part 1
This lesson involves using pattern blocks to model addition and subtraction of positive mixed numbers for randomly generated numeric expressions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/addition-and-subtraction-of-rational-numbers-part-1
Bathroom Flooring
This lesson involves students tiling the floors of three bathrooms with provided tiles and determining the cost of the floor based on the unit price of each tile.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/bathroom-flooring
Composite Rectangular Figures
Students will find the perimeter and area of a composite rectangular figure. They will explain how to find the measures (lengths) of unknown sides as well as the area of the entire polygon by dividing the figure into smaller rectangular figures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/composite-rectangular-figures
Comparing Pi's and Roots
This lesson involves manipulating the radius of a circle and the sides of a right triangle in an attempt to set the circumference of the circle equal to the hypotenuse of the right trianglehttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-pis-and-roots
Introduction to Transformations
The purpose of this activity is to use the dynamic capabilities of the TI-Nspire to help students make conjectures about transformations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/introduction-to-transformations
Comparing Double Line Graphs and Box Plots
Students are given a data table and are asked to look at the double-line graph to understand the trends that they observe in regards to indoor and drive-in movie theaters. They are then asked to investigate the trends that are presented to them when a box plot is created with the same data. Stud...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-double-line-graphs-and-box-plots
F Distribution
Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values. Students then use the Fcdf command to find probabilities and to confirm percentiles. They move on to find critical values and then compute a conf...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/f-distribution_1
What is a p-value?
This lesson involves beginning with a null hypothesis specifying the mean of a normally distributed population with a given standard deviation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-a-pvalue_1
Exploring the Normal Curve Family
Students will investigate the relationship of the equation of a normal curve to its graph. They will use a slider to change the values of two parameters, m and s, to investigate their effects on the normal curve, noting in particular that m represents the location of the mean and that s represent...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-normal-curve-family_1
