NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "The O.G." - Is It Really Rare?
Suppose that historically, a shooting has occurred in Los Angeles an average of once every 6 hours. Suppose that Charlie is interested in the probability of 2 shootings occurring in a given 24-hour period. He could use a Poisson distribution to find that probability.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--the-o-g---is-it-really-rare

Pass the Ball
Students use mathematics to examine patterns that occur in a specific scenario and predict future events for the scenario. Data is collected on the time it takes to pass a ball. The students plot graphs, fit the data with a function rule, analyze proportional relationships, and make predictions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pass-the-ball
Write a Program to do Piecewise Functions
A fun activity to help students learn how to graph a piecewise function and learn how to write a BASIC program. Gives a sense of Accomplishment.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/write-a-program-to-do-piecewise-functions
The Garbage Problem
Students examine data about garbage production and graphically represent data in a scatter plot. From the data students make predictions. They develop an understanding of the environmental impact of trash accumulation and the need for a plan to deal with potential garbage problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-garbage-problem
Let's Play Ball with Families of Graphs
This activity is designed for students to use real-time data to generate a family of parabolic graphs. The data set will be generated by graphing the heights of a ball bounce with respect to time.
