Graphs and Fractions

Have students draw squares on graph paper and half some of the squares on the outside. Number all the squares and continue numbering with the halfs. Students are then instructed to create their own ratios such as: 4 halves to eight wholes of odd numbers etc. Encourage student's to be creative by ...

Probability as Relative Frequency

In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event happening. Students investigate the binomial and geometric prob...

The Normal Distribution

Students graph normal distributions, shade desired areas, and find related probabilities. They graph Normal probability scatter plots to check the normal (linear) shape of a data distribution.

Exploring Bivariate Data

Students graph scatter plots and understand the concepts of correlation and least-squares regression. They also perform transformations to achieve linearity in the data plot.

Summarizing Distributions of Univariate Data

Students understand statistical concepts like center of data and the amount of data variation from the center. They calculate the measures of the center of a distribution and the measures of spread for the data collected as a list. Students also create boxplots for the data. They examine the effe...

What's the Trig?

Students will be introduced to right triangle trigonometry. They will use the TI-89 and Geometer's Sketchpad to construct a right triangle and calculate sin, cosine, and tangent of various acute angles. (Topic - Right Triangle Trigonometry)
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-trig

What's the Angle?

Students discover properties of interior and exterior angles of convex polygons using the TI-89 and Geometer's Sketchpad. (Topic - Interior and Exterior Angles of Convex Polygons)
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-angle

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.

Going in Circles - Inscribed Angles

This lesson has students discover properties of inscribed angles in a circle. Students use the Geometer's Sketchpad application for the TI-89 to construct a circle and an inscribed angle. (Topic - circles)

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.

Making Cookies

Students will reduce a cafeteria recipe to suit a household recipe. They use compatible numbers to choose smaller measurements while retaining the original proportions.

Conics & Parametrics 1

This activity is a LearningCheck™ to quickly assess students' ability to identify conics from their equations in both rectangular and parametric form.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conics--parametrics-1

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 patte...

The Ordinary Man

Students will estimate the heights of various celebrities in feet and inches. They will use the TI-34 MultiView™ scientific calculator to convert actual heights in inches to feet and inches, and they will compare the actual heights with their estimated heights. Finally, they will graph the estima...
