Vernier - Friction
Students study how the nature of two materials in contact, and the smoothness of their surfaces affect the magnitude of the sliding force of friction. They use a force sensor to measure frictional force for different surfaces.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--friction
Ratios in Regular Polygons
Students use linear measurement and calculators to investigate the ratios between corresponding parts of regular polygons.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ratios-in-regular-polygons
What's My Ratio?
Students use linear measurement and calculators to investigate proportionality and determine the constant ratio between similar figures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-my-ratio
Bones Bones Them There Bones
Student use the theory behind carbon dating to determine the age of bones discovered in a garden. The beta decay of C-14 to nitrogen is the basis for this exploration.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/bones-bones-them-there-bones
Who Started it All?
Students look at the spread of disease and predict the model for that spread. Data is taken at the end of each "sharing" and the exponential model predicted is found to be faulty. The logistic model is then explore. Since we have the list of contacts and the data per contact we can trace it ba...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-started-it-all
The Ball and All of Its Energy
Students will collect data using a CBR-2 and a ball. The will create an Nspire document to analyze the energy of that toss. Students learn how to collect data, create documents and graphs to analyze data and understand the ideas of conservation of energy.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-ball-and-all-of-its-energy
Blackbody Radiation
This program will produce the blackbody radiation curve for one or two objects when the student inputs the temperature(s) in kelvin. The program will also display on the curve the peak frequency and wavelength when one object is selected.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/blackbody-radiation
Centripetal Acceleration
To observe the centripetal acceleration of an object in uniform circular motion. Relate the changes in velocity and radius to the centripetal acceleration.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/centripetal-acceleration
Circular Motion
In UCM, the net force called Fc is equal to mv2/r and is directed toward the center. This is demonstrated by an object that is suspended by a string and is moving in a circular path which makes a conical pendulum. In this experiment, you will measure the tension and the length of the string to ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circular-motion_1
Under Pressure
Students will conduct an experiment to determine the pressure applied to various objects.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/under-pressure
It's the Place that Counts
Students learn to add using place-value material and a calculator. They make connections between base-ten numerals and the quantities they represent.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/its-the-place-that-counts
Surface Area of Cylinder Song
Here's a silly song that I use with my classes to help them remember how to find the surface area of cylinders. My students actually suggested that I submit this!https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/surface-area-of-cylinder-song
Proportional Flag
Students will use the concepts of similarity to create a scale drawing of the national flag, that is large enough to cover most of a football field.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/proportional-flag
Quilt Blocks
Students will see how fractions, decimals, and percents are interrelated, then explore and learn how to convert between them. Students will also practice estimating.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quilt-blocks
Slam Dunk!
Students will use radius, diameter, length, width, and height to find volume of spheres and prisms as well as area of circles and rectangles. They will discuss when to use a two-dimensional measurement vs. a three-dimensional measurement using spatial reasoning.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/slam-dunk
Banquet Meal
Students use proportional reasoning skills to increase a family-size recipe to a banquet-size recipe.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/banquet-meal
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_1
