Hooke's Law
Students study Hooke's Law. They understand that stretch on a spring is directly proportional to the force applied to the end of the string. Students observe a spring being stretched as candies are added to a cup attached to the spring. They learn to graph scatter plots, analyze linear function, ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hookes-law
Solar Cookers and Easy Data
Students use a TI-84, Easy Temp and Easy Data to measure the quality of their solar cookers. Hot dogs are heated under the May sunshine after students design, build and test their own solar cookers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solar-cookers-and-easy-data
Vernier - An Inclined Plane
In this activity, students will use a Force Sensor to measure the force needed to lift an object and the force needed to pull the same object up an inclined plane. They will also calculate work done and efficiency and make conclusions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--an-inclined-plane

Exploring Motion Graphs
Students will create distance-time and velocity-time graphs with CBL2™ and motion detectors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-motion-graphs
Step by Step
Students take distance readings as they walk in front of a CBR™. They apply the properties of a linear function to develop a model for the motion and interpret the values used in the model. Students learn to graph scatter plots, calculate slope, and graph linear function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/step-by-step
Predicting π
Students explore the use of linear measurement and calculators to discover the existence of π, the constant ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/predicting-π
"Power"ful Patterns
Students investigate the relationship between multiplication with repeated factors and the use of exponents. Students will connect "powers of ten" to place value positions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/powerful-patterns
