From Conception to Birth Time Line
A time line showing the stages of human gestation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/from-conception-to-birth-time-line
Vernier - Microscale Acid-Base Titration
In this activity, students' will use a pH sensor to determine the change in pH during a titration of a known concentration of NaOH and unknown concentration of HCl. Students' will determine the concentration of unknown HCl.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--microscale-acidbase-titration
Seed Growth
To observe germination and understand plant seeding development. To use the graphics calculator to find the line of regression.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/seed-growth
Titration Experiment
This activity is a fast and safe microscale experiment which allows students to quickly determine the molariy of three weak acids (vinegar, soda, and citric acid). Since the process involves a monoprotic, diprotic, and a triprotic acid, students recieve good exposure to the stoichiometry involve...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/titration-experiment
Shedding Light on the Weather with Relative Humidity
In this activity, students will collect the data for temperature and relative humidity and plot the data. They will look for the patterns displayed by the three plots and relate them to their experiences.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shedding-light-on-the-weather-with-relative-humidity
This is for the Birds!
This activity enables students to practice various skills such entering lists, comparing data, and utilizing statistical terms on the graphing calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/this-is-for-the-birds
