This App provides students with a graphical representation of the elements of the Periodic Table. Information includes 15 properties and facts about the 109 known elements. Students get to explore graphs of the periodic nature of the elements.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/periodic-table-app
An ounce of prevention
Students will collect measures off of containers for the volume in both milliliters and ounces. They will set up a plot to determine the relationship between the two measures. Students will predict values for volumes in one unit, given the other.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/an-ounce-of-prevention
How Do Your Errors Grow!
A simple measuring activity allows students to explore the sometimes difficult concept of significant figures, both manually and with the help of the Science Tools App's Sig-Fig Calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-do-your-errors-grow
Fraction Multiplication
This activity uses interactive unit squares to explore the concept of fraction multiplication. The concept of fraction multiplication is developed by considering the area of a unit square that has been partitioned into rectangles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fraction-multiplication
