Marching Columns
Students investigate constructing arrangements of different numbers of manipulatives into equal groups. They learn to use mathematical language, identify patterns with numbers, recognize the commutative property, and transfer the arrangements made with manipulatives to grid paper.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/marching-columns
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
Comparing Distributions of Univariate Data
Students compare univariate data distributions using statistical concepts like boxplots, stemplots, and histograms.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-distributions-of-univariate-data

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
Dividing Notes
Students create an altered musical melody by dividing fractions. They compute the value of notes in terms of fractions and make their sum equal to the time signature.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dividing-notes
What Makes a Food Nutritious?
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-nutritious
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.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-cookies
Fast nines and Fast tens
Students learn how to solve a mathematical equation with a missing addend. Students will learn the combinations of addends to find the sums of nine and ten. Students practice math facts with accuracy and immediacy for sums of nine and ten.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fast-nines-and-fast-tens
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...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11
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. For this activity, students need prior experience writing linear models.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-best-cell-phone-plan_1
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-34 MultiView™ calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lets-count-the-ways_1
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...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-ordinary-man
To Simplify or Not to Simplify...
Students will discuss fractions and what it means to simplify them using prime factorization. Students will then use the calculator to simplify fractions manually as well as investigate both the prime factorization and greatest common factors of the numerator and denominator in various fractions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/to-simplify-or-not-to-simplify
