Here's Looking At Euclid
Students first use the familiar prime factorization method to calculate the GCD and LCM of two numbers. Second, they apply Euclid’s algorithm, an iterative process for finding the GCD, in conjunction with a formula for the LCM given the GCD. In order to use the algorithm, they must first grasp th...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/heres-looking-at-euclid
Connecting Algebra 2 to Statistics
Once students learn how to solve exponential and logarithmic equations, the students can take data and decide if an appropriate model is exponential. This activity will require students to create scatterplots and to have the knowlegde of the relationship being linear or nonlinear. This activity...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/connecting-algebra-2-to-statistics
Once and For All...Absolutely
The activity is designed to be a lesson in solving absolute value inequalities. The intent is to distinguish the kinds of solutions that absolute value inequalities have and the forms of stating the solutions. More importantly the activity considers two methods of solutions: a graphing method and...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/once-and-for-all---absolutely
The Open Box: An Exploration of Maximum Volume
The students will solve the problem of finding the maximum volume of a box cut from an 18 x 24 cm peice of paper in several ways. The student will actually cut out and form several different boxes. The student will fill the boxes with "starburst" candies and then use their TI-Nspires to analyze...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-open-box-an-exploration-of-maximum-volume
Equivalent Fractions
This activity helps students understand that two fractions are equivalent (or equal) if they are located at the same point on the number line. Students recognize that, as with whole numbers, when ordering fractions the larger of two fractions is located farther to the right on the number line.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/equivalent-fractions
Back to the Basics
Students learn and use the basic undefined terms and defined terms of geometry. The activity does include some drawing practice on the handheld.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/back-to-the-basics
Are You Normal Size?
Students use established body proportions to see if their own proportions are normal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/are-you-normal-size
