Who's in the House
Students construct a model of a house, drawing pictures of the people and pets in the house. Students use skip counting strategies to find possible combinations of people and pets that live in their classmates houses with the help of pictures and TI-10.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whos-in-the-house
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
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
Cottage Water Problem
Students use the Cabri Geometry II Plus software to solve a geometry problem. They move the vertex point that is common to two right triangles along the base to find the smallest possible sum of the length of the hypotenuse.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cottage-water-problem
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
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
