Modeling Mantid Striking Distance
In this TI-Nspire activity, students investigate the relationship between how hungry a praying mantis (also called a “mantid”) is and the distance at which the praying mantis will strike (jump) at prey.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/modeling-mantid-striking-distance_nspire
Modeling The Game of Hog
This activity engages students in a dice game with the goal of finding the optimum strategy for winning, in this case, maximizing the possible number of points when tossing dice as long as no sixes show up in a toss.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/modeling-game-of-hog
Shuffleboard Slide with Proportions
In this coding activity, students will create a shuffleboard game using Python and mathematics.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shuffleboard-slide
Unit Circle Cruncher
