Lifting a Lion
In this activity, students will practice solving a real-world problem. Using a toy lion and a lever, students first discover how much work is needed to raise a toy lion. They will then use proportions to determine the force needed to lift a real lion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lifting-a-lion
In the Range
Students will interpret the rounding involved in measuring to identify the possible range of a given measurement.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/in-the-range
Fraction Forms
Students will compare the results of using division to create fractions under the different mode settings for fraction display and make generalizations from the patterns they observe.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fraction-forms
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Killer Chat" - The Perfect House
The FBI found three bodies in different unoccupied houses, all for sale. Because the victims are completely unrelated, Charlie decides that profiling the houses might reveal a distinct pattern to find out where the killer will strike next. By using a Multi-Attribute Compositional Model, the house...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--killer-chat--the-perfect-house
Recurring Remainders
Students will use the calculator to investigate the patterns formed by remainders in whole-number division.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/recurring-remainders
Number and Operation Sense: Whole Numbers
Students attain a basic understanding of numbers and number operations, developing number sense, and gaining fluency in arithmetic computation. They also learn to use the calculator to explore the mathematical principles behind the standard multiplication algorithm for multidigit numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-and-operation-sense-whole-numbers
Calculator Pattern Pizzles
This lesson will allow young children to explore number patterns and relationships while introducing the calculator at the same time.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/calculator-pattern-pizzles
a-MAZE-ing Secret Paths
Students learn to add and subtract numbers using the calculator. They investigate patterns in place value and explore relationships between numbers on the hundred chart.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/amazeing-secret-paths
Vectors
Describes how to use the TI-89 for coordinate system transformations, vector algebra, and vector component transformations. The functions rec2cyl(), cyl2rec(), rec2sph(), and sph2rec() are created in this chapter for vector component transformations and are used in Chapters 10 and 11.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vectors
Action-Packed Subtraction Patterns
Students learn to use manipulatives and calculators to explore what happens when they change one number at a time in a subtraction number sentence. They record and develop the pattern that develops.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/actionpacked-subtraction-patterns
Action-Packed Stories
Students learn to use whole numbers and the operations of addition and subtraction. They choose a number and create a story using the number selected and illustrate the number story. They represent the action in the story on the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/actionpacked-stories
Meet my friend the calculator
This activity/lesson introduces the students to calculators and how to use them to find numbers 1 - 20.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/meet-my-friend-the-calculator
Financial Calculations
Describes how to use the TI-89 to calculate interest, present worth, loan repayments and so forth. These methods utilize the time-value-of-money.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/financial-calculations
Making Picture Graphs
Students learn to make picture graphs with symbols that represent more than one piece of data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-picture-graphs
Randomization in Sampling and Experiments
This activity covers random sampling and randomization for experiments.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/randomization-in-sampling-and-experiments
Football Scores
Students will determine the possible combinations of scoring events in a football game to reach a specific end score.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/football-scores
Confidence Intervals
Students understand the confidence intervals for a proportion and for a mean. They also examine the confidence intervals for the difference between two means, and for the difference between two proportions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-intervals
Comparing Distributions of Univariate Data
Students compare univariate data distributions using statistical concepts like boxplots, stemplots, and histograms.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-distributions-of-univariate-data
The Normal Distribution
Students graph normal distributions, shade desired areas, and find related probabilities. They graph Normal probability scatter plots to check the normal (linear) shape of a data distribution.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-normal-distribution_1
Sampling Distributions
Students studies the distribution of sample proportions with a simulation. They find small sample size leads to skewed distribution and as the sample size increases, the distribution becomes more normal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling-distributions
Sampling Distribution of Differences
This activity covers the distribution of a difference between two independent sample proportions or two independent sample means.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling-distribution-of-differences
Tests of Significance
Students understand how tests of significance can be performed with confidence intervals. They use a simulation to clarify the meaning of a hypothesis. Students examine large sample tests for a proportion, mean, difference between two proportions, and difference between two means. They also study...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tests-of-significance
Summarizing Distributions of Univariate Data
Students understand statistical concepts like center of data and the amount of data variation from the center. They calculate the measures of the center of a distribution and the measures of spread for the data collected as a list. Students also create boxplots for the data. They examine the effe...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/summarizing-distributions-of-univariate-data
