Who Started It All? The Spread Of Disease
Students predict the spread of disease to be exponential. They then do a hands on "sharing of bodily fluids" and see the actual data and compare these results to the projected model. You actually see the number of infected after each sharing to see the shift of the model easier. Written to be c...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-started-it-all--the-spread-of-disease

No More Peas, Please!
Students explore the use of nonstandard units of volume and calculators to estimate the number of peas it would take to fill a classroom.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/no-more-peas-please
The 1 Cent Event
In this activity, students will collect data on a 1 cent coin as it falls under its own volition after being placed on its edge 25 times. They will report their data to the class and enter the data into their TI-84 Plus. They will examine the data from the collective and discuss patterns revealed...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-1-cent-event
Transmission Lines
Describes how to calculate the characteristic impedance and phase velocity on transmission lines. Steady state transmission line behavior and simple matching concepts are included also. The functions reflcoef(), lineleng(), zin(), yin() and vswr() are created.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transmission-lines
Buy A Word
Students complete multi-step task/problem solve; use decimals, FIX key, place value keys; see that fractions/decimals represent a part of a whole in money; organize table/record; put monetary value on letters and find sum of those letters.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/buy-a-word
Adding and Subtracting Decimals
Students' learn about adding and subtracting decimals.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/adding-and-subtracting-decimals
Convolution
Shows the convolution of two functions. To simplify the details, the functions are finite, piecewise, and continous.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/convolution
Antennas
Describes how to perform basic antenna and radiation calculations with the TI-89. Antenna patterns, radiation resistance, radiation integrals, and phased array patterns are included.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/antennas
Lifting a Lion
In this activity, students will practice solving a real-world problem. Using a toy lion and a lever, students first discover how much work is needed to raise a toy lion. They will then use proportions to determine the force needed to lift a real lion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lifting-a-lion
In the Range
Students will interpret the rounding involved in measuring to identify the possible range of a given measurement.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/in-the-range
Recurring Remainders
Students will use the calculator to investigate the patterns formed by remainders in whole-number division.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/recurring-remainders
Calculator Pattern Pizzles
This lesson will allow young children to explore number patterns and relationships while introducing the calculator at the same time.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/calculator-pattern-pizzles
a-MAZE-ing Secret Paths
Students learn to add and subtract numbers using the calculator. They investigate patterns in place value and explore relationships between numbers on the hundred chart.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/amazeing-secret-paths
Action-Packed Stories
Students learn to use whole numbers and the operations of addition and subtraction. They choose a number and create a story using the number selected and illustrate the number story. They represent the action in the story on the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/actionpacked-stories
Meet my friend the calculator
This activity/lesson introduces the students to calculators and how to use them to find numbers 1 - 20.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/meet-my-friend-the-calculator
Financial Calculations
Describes how to use the TI-89 to calculate interest, present worth, loan repayments and so forth. These methods utilize the time-value-of-money.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/financial-calculations
Football Scores
Students will determine the possible combinations of scoring events in a football game to reach a specific end score.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/football-scores
Fractions and Skittles
Students will predict how many of each color will be in one pack of skittles before they open the package. Once they open the package, they will determine how close their predictioins are to the actual amount. Students then will come up with ratios and averages.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fractions-and-skittles
Creating Word Problems
Students write word problems based on the whole numbers generated by the calculator. They decide on an operation to solve the problems. Finally, they analyze the problems to determine the problem characteristics when using operations on whole numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/creating-word-problems
Finding the area of a perfect polygon.
To find the area of a "regular polygon."https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-the-area-of-a-perfect-polygon
What's the Fastest Way to Get Rich?
Students investigate exponential growth and discover patterns by exploring different scenarios involving money. They will learn how repeatedly doubling, or multiplying by two, can also be expressed exponentially.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-fastest-way-to-get-rich
In Round Numbers
Students will develop and test rules for rounding whole numbers and decimal fractions. They will use the information to solve real-world problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/in-round-numbers
