How do You Measure Up? (with the TI-10)
Students measure weight, height, and length with the help of a balance, scales, rulers, yardstick, and tape measures. They use their TI-10 to find proportions and to round off answers to whole numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-do-you-measure-up-with-the-ti10
Hat Trick
Students learn to solve a real-world problem in economics. Students get to understand how surveys often use a sample of people rather than all of the people involved. They also learn how to make decisions based on the results of a sample survey.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hat-trick
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...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/probability-as-relative-frequency
Tests of Significance
Students understand how tests of significance can be performed with confidence intervals. They use a simulation to clarify the meaning of a hypothesis. Students examine large sample tests for a proportion, mean, difference between two proportions, and difference between two means. They also study...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tests-of-significance
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...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/summarizing-distributions-of-univariate-data
Stepping Stones
Students use volume formulas and proportional reasoning to calculate the amount of concrete needed to make stepping stones of a specific size.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stepping-stones
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
Number and Operation Sense: Rational Numbers
Students learn to use the calculator to collect a set of data in order to identify patterns that illustrate important rational number concepts: the relationship between rational numbers and division, and equivalent fraction and decimal forms for rational numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-and-operation-sense-rational-numbers
Thrift Store Markdowns
Students will calculate a series of discounts using increasing unit fractions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/thrift-store-markdowns
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
Pizza Extravaganza
Students will conduct a survey of the class to determine favorite pizza toppings. They use this sample information to predict the preferred toppings for the school and use the TI-15 to help them with the calculations to plan a school-wide pizza party.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pizza-extravaganza
Homestead-Miami Chase Activity
In this activity, students will investigate whether it is better to take the shortest path or the fastest path.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/homesteadmiami-chase-activity
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
Who Needs Mixed Numbers?
Students divide and multiply mixed numbers and fractions in real-life examples relating to carpentry.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-needs-mixed-numbers_1
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
The Antics of Statistics
Students learn/review some of the different measures of statistics and see how to use those measures to analyze a data set. Students also participate in a discussion about how statistics can be used to achieve a variety of results.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-antics-of-statistics
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
