Order Pears
Students investigate ordered pairs by graphically exploring the coordinates of a point on a Cartesian plane and identifying characteristics of a point corresponding to the coordinate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/order-pears
Measures of Central Tendency Using Scientific Calculators
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include: Modeling mathematics in real-world problem situations Relating procedures in equivalent representations in different contexts Understanding and applying the measures of central tendencyhttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/measures-of-central-tendency-using-scientific-calculators
What's Up?
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include writing keystroke sequences for formulas and converting between temperature scales.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-up
Roots
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include roots, powers of 10, and problem solving.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/roots
Divisibility Rules Using Scientific Calculators
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include number theory, divisibility rules, multiples, factors, and problem-solving skills.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/divisibility-rules-using-scientific-calculators
What's So Special about 11?
Students will compute multiples of numbers in search of patterns. As a class, they'll discover patterns in multiples of 9; then they'll do the same with patterns in multiples of 11. They will then practice writing the rule for 11, both verbally and algebraically, to summarize the discovered pattern.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11_1
The Ordinary Man
Students will estimate the heights of various celebrities in inches. They will convert inches to feet, and they will interpret the calculator results to express the estimated heights in feet and inches. Finally, they will graph the estimated heights and actual heights of the celebrities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-ordinary-man_1
Circumference and Area of a Circle
Students explore how to derive pi (∏) as a ratio. Students also study the circumference and area of a circle using formulas.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circumference-and-area-of-a-circle
What's Your Mileage?
Students use linear equations to model and solve real-world problems. Students also see the correlation between the graph of an equation and its calculated slope by plotting graphs by hand and then calculating slopes with the calculator and comparing.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-your-mileage
Can Pythagoras Swim?
Students will investigate relationships between sides of right triangles to understand the Pythagorean theorem and then use it to solve problems. Students will simplify expressions using radicals and exponents in this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-pythagoras-swim_1
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
The Best Cell Phone Plan
Students will compare two cell phone plans and determine which plan is better for a specific situation. They will utilize both tables and graphs to make their decisions. Students need prior experience writing linear models for this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-best-cell-phone-plan
What Makes a Food Nutritional?
Students will analyze select nutritional values of specific food products and then compare those values to the recommended daily allowances published by the U.S.D.A. They will calculate percentages and fractions based upon the information they find.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-makes-a-food-nutritional
Let’s Count the Ways
Students will be introduced to the different ways to calculate numbers of outcomes, including using the counting principle. They will also evaluate expressions using permutations of data without repeat elements, both manually and on the TI-30XS MultiView™ calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lets-count-the-ways
How Hot Is It?
Students who are familiar with the two most common standards of measuring temperature learn how to reliably convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. Students also see how order of operations is crucial in an equation, through discussion and data entry on the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-hot-is-it
It's To Be Expected - 84
Students use a tree diagram to find theoretical probabilities and use this information with lists to find the expected value.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/its-to-be-expected
