Reflections in the Mirror
In this lesson, students will reflect objects over a mirror line to determine the position of the image.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reflections-in-the-mirror
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
Concave Mirrors
In this lesson, students will explore the reflection of a movable object in a concave mirror.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/concave-mirrors
Free Body Diagrams
In this lesson, students will explore the relationships of the different forces on an object such as weight, normal force, parallel force, and friction.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/free-body-diagrams
Sound and Waves
In this lesson, students change characteristics of a sine wave to discover the frequency, amplitude, and phase shift. They will also use these properties to see the effect of adding two waves to form dampening and beats.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sound-and-waves
Circuit Construction Kit (HS)
In this lesson, students will simulate, observe and manipulate electric current, voltage and resistance.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circuit-construction-kit-hs
Exponential Functions f(x) = abx
Move a slider to investigate the effect of different a-values on f(x) = a*bx.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exponential-functions-fx--absupxsup
Special Segments in Triangles
Create four special segments from a given vertex in a triangle and identify relationships among the special segments and the angles they form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/special-segments-in-triangles
Vernier - A Good Cold Pack
Students use the EasyTemp temperature probe to determine temperature changes as different solid substances dissolve in water. They then develop and test a plan for making the best cold pack using three grams of one of the substances. EasyData™ is needed for this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--a-good-cold-pack
Vernier - A Speedy Slide with EasyData™ App and CBR 2™
Students will use a CBR 2™ motion detector to determine their speed or velocity going down a playground slide. They will also experiment with different ways to increase their speed going down the slide.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--a-speedy-slide-with-easydata-app-and-cbr-2
Vernier - Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions
Students will observe two chemical reactions. They will use an EasyTemp probe to determine the change in temperature and identify endothermic and exothermic reactions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--endothermic-and-exothermic-reactions
Pyramid Height Exploration
This activity center is used to illustrate the difference between the slant height and the actual perpendicular height (of the given square pyramid) by the use of the distance formula.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pyramid-height-exploration
Solving Problems Using Trigonometry
Solving real life problem using trig ratios. Example: Finding the angle of elevation or the angle of depression. Finding the angle between two lines. Finding equation of a line that passes through two points.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solving-problems-using-trigonometry
Special Segments in Triangles
Students will construct and explore medians, altitudes, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors of triangles. They then drag the vertices to see where the intersections of the segments lie in relation to the triangle, and they measure distances to identify relationships.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/special-segments-in-triangles_2
Estimating a Population Proportion
Students find the confidence interval for a population proportion by first finding the critical value and the margin of error.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/estimating-a-population-proportion
Graph My Center
Students create a box plot or histogram. They will find measures of central tendency and identify which best describes the data set.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graph-my-center
Properties of Parrallelograms
Properties of Parrallelogramshttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-parrallelograms
SSS Triangle Congruence
Students will: 1. Construct a triangle and measure its sides and angles. 2. Construct a second triangle with corresponding sides equal in length. 3. Try to alter the properties of their construction by moving the vertices.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sss-triangle-congruence
SAS Triangle Congruence
Students will: 1.Construct a triangle and measure one pair of sides and the contained angle 2.Construct a second triangle with corresponding sides equal in length and congruent corresponding angles 3.Try to alter the properties of their construction by moving the verticeshttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sas-triangle-congruence
Arrow- An Activiaty for Plotting Points
Students are given points to plot in activity center. The points will form an arrow. The teacher can then direct students to change the coordinates to translate the picture. Students practice plotting points, integer operations, and see transformations in one activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/arrow-an-activiaty-for-plotting-points
