Reaction Rates
Student will see how the decomposition of nitrogen dioxide creates nitric oxide and oxygen. Students and/or teacher will use this to demonstrate how you would find the reaction rates using the numbers that are given in the problem, and then maybe using numbers that they obtain on their own with ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reaction-rates
Law of Definite Proportions
The law of definite proportions states that a chemical compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by mass. The French chemist Joseph Proust conducted several experiments between 1798 and 1804 to make this discovery. At the time (before Dalton had proposed his atomic theory)...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/law-of-definite-proportions
Designing a Reaction Rate Experiment
In this activity, students will design, conduct, and report the outcome of an experiment in which they investigate some factor that affects the rate of reaction between baking soda and vinegar. The dynamic nature of the reaction, coupled with a wide range of possible choices of independent varia...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/designing-a-reaction-rate-experiment
Call it ...Dominant or Recessive
In this activity, students simulate a Punnett square of a cross between two heterozygous individuals and produce a histogram. They compare actual and expected results of genetic crosses.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/call-it----dominant-or-recessive
Diprotic Acid Lab and Easy Data

Crime Scene Investigation - Stride Pattern Analysis with CBR 2
By using the Calculator-Based Ranger (CBR2™), students can plot the distance-time graph of a walking or running person. Students find correlation between the stride distance, velocity, and the height of a person, walking or running at a steady pace and compare that to the stride pattern left at t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/crime-scene-investigation--stride-pattern-analysis-with-cbr-2
Subnivean Comfort
Students measure and compare air temperatures inside and outside a snow shelter. If students choose to sleep in the shelter overnight they use the temperature measurements to confirm what they discover experientially- that snow is a great insulator!https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/subnivean-comfort
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Democracy" - I Never Metadata I Didn't Like
In "Democracy", Charlie investigates the death of a friend. He finds columns of numbers on her computer, and because they are not labeled, he does not know what they mean. He explains, "Numbers tend to come in groups 'it's called metadata' information about data".

Students use manipulatives to construct a pyramid. The manipulative pyramid then becomes the basis students use to construct a pictorial representation of a pyramid. The TI-10 is used to show symbolic representation of students actions and also aids students in viewing the developing pattern.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/bats-triangular
Marching Columns
Students investigate constructing arrangements of different numbers of manipulatives into equal groups.
