It's Getting Hot in Here
In this lesson, students will manipulate greenhouse gases to gather data on global temperature.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/its-getting-hot-in-here
Photosynthesis in Plants
In this lesson, students will observe the effects of certain variables on the rate of photosynthesis in a plant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/photosynthesis-in-plants
Photosynthesis of Plants
In this lesson, students will develop a deeper understanding of the variables affecting the rate of photosynthesis in plants.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/photosynthesis-of-plants
Punnett Squares
In this lesson, students will discover how traits can be passed on from parents to offspring.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/punnett-squares
Properties of Magnetism
In this lesson, students will create a solenoid-type electromagnet using two different methods of coiling the wire around the core.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-magnetism
Plane Mirrors
In this lesson, students will investigate the relationship between an object and its image in a plane mirror. Understanding how plane mirrors work provides a useful scaffold for understanding more complex situations, such as those involving concave and convex mirrors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/plane-mirrors
NASA - Space Shuttle Roll Manuever
In this lesson, students will look at the RCS (Reaction Control System) and how firing jets affect the roll of the space shuttle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--space-shuttle-roll-manuever
Mass on a Spring
In this lesson, students will simulate the motion of an anvil attached to a spring as it oscillates on a frictionless, horizontal surface.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mass-on-a-spring
Vector Components
In this lesson, students will first explore the relationship between the magnitude and direction of a vector and the components of the vector. Students will then explore how two vectors are added to produce a resultant vector.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vector-components
Recipe for a Living World
In this lesson, students will observe the effects of light intensity and wavelength on the rate of photosynthesis in a plant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/recipe-for-a-living-world
Need for Speed
In this lesson, students will investigate the properties of enzymes and how they affect reaction rates.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/need-for-speed
Sampling Distributions
This lesson involves examining samples from a normal population and observing the distribution of the means of those samples.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling-distributions_1
Traveling Blue Genes
In this lesson, students will simulate, observe, and manipulate the variables that affect the results of DNA gel electrophoresis.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/traveling-blue-genes

Vernier - Air Resistance
Students use the Vernier Motion Detector to measure the effect of air resistance on falling objects. They determine how air resistance and mass affect the terminal velocity of a falling object and then choose a force model that fits the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--air-resistance_1
Vernier - Picket Fence Free Fall
In this activity, students will measure the acceleration of a freely falling body (g) to better than 0.5% precision with the help of a Picket Fence and a Photogate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--picket-fence-free-fall

Stacking Bricks
This activity presents a real-world situation--stacking bricks in a pile--that can be modeled by a polynomial function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stacking-bricks_1
Stacking Bricks - 84
This activity presents a real-world situation--stacking bricks in a pile--that can be modeled by a polynomial function. Students create a small table to show how the number of bricks relates to the number of rows, and calculate the first, second, and third differences of the data. Next they use t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stacking-bricks
