Who Started It All? The Spread Of Disease
Students predict the spread of disease to be exponential. They then do a hands on "sharing of bodily fluids" and see the actual data and compare these results to the projected model. You actually see the number of infected after each sharing to see the shift of the model easier. Written to be c...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-started-it-all--the-spread-of-disease
Number and Operation Sense: Whole Numbers
Students attain a basic understanding of numbers and number operations, developing number sense, and gaining fluency in arithmetic computation. They also learn to use the calculator to explore the mathematical principles behind the standard multiplication algorithm for multidigit numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-and-operation-sense-whole-numbers
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
Mean As A Balance Point
In this lesson, students calculate deviations from the mean, how far each value is above or below the mean. Students also focus on the balance point of a distribution, where the sum of the absolute deviations below the mean is equal to the sum of the absolute deviations above the mean.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mean-as-a-balance-point-bc
What's the Trig?
Students will be introduced to right triangle trigonometry. They will use the TI-89 and Geometer's Sketchpad to construct a right triangle and calculate sin, cosine, and tangent of various acute angles. (Topic - Right Triangle Trigonometry)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-trig
Parallel or Perpendicular-What's Your Inclination?
This activity has students discover the relationship between parallel and perpendicular lines and their slopes. After constructing these objects using CABRI Geometry II for the TI-89, slopes are measured. (Topic - parallel and perpendicular lines)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parallel-or-perpendicularwhats-your-inclination
What's the Angle?
Students discover properties of interior and exterior angles of convex polygons using the TI-89 and Geometer's Sketchpad. (Topic - Interior and Exterior Angles of Convex Polygons)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-angle
What's the Spin?
Students discover properties of rotations using the TI-89 and CABRI Geometry II by rotating a triangle around a point and through a specified angle. They will discover the definition of a rotation. (Topic -- Rotations and their relation to reflect)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-spin
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
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
What is a Variable?
In this lesson students evaluate expressions, write expressions that correspond to given situations, and use expressions and formulas to solve problems. Students also examine a product of the form ax for given integer values of a in terms of how the value of the product changes for a one unit cha...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-a-variable-bc
What is an Equation?
In this lesson students begin by establishing the difference between an expression and an equation. Students then investigate expressions and equations to develop what it means to have a solution to an equation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-an-equation-bc
What is an Exponent?
Why are exponents useful and how do they behave? An exponent indicates how many times the base to which it refers is a factor; i.e., in , the 4 indicates that the base, 3, is used as a factor four times. This lesson focuses on how the definition can be used in a variety of situations to make sens...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-an-exponent--bc
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 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
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
