Lines, Models, CBR - Let's Tie Them Together (Electronic Format Only)
In this activity, students use a motion detector to collect "linear" motion data and examine the relationship between a physical action and a mathematical and/or graphic model of that action. The students will use the "eyeball" method to find the mathematical model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lines-models-cbr--lets-tie-them-together-electronic-format-only
Finding a Line of Best Fit
Students make a scatter plot of heart rate versus age data and draw lines of best fit using three different methods - by hand, using the upper and lower quartiles, and using the handheld's regression feature.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-a-line-of-best-fit

Power Company
Students explore the limits on powers that can be displayed without scientific notation and look for patterns in the powers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/power-company
Stuff It!
Students learn to calculate volume of a sphere and a rectangular prism. They explore methods of determining how many volleyballs can be placed in a room.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stuff-it
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_1
3x3 Linear Systems of Equations

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
Constructing Similar Triangles
Students investigate three different methods of constructing similar triangles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-similar-triangles
Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Common Denominators
This activity uses interactive number lines to investigate addition and subtraction of fractions that refer to the same whole, with like denominators. Students may reason about the process as 1) decomposing each fraction into unit fractions and counting the total number of unit fractions that wou...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/adding-and-subtracting-fractions-with-common-denominators
Estimating a Population Proportion
Students find the confidence interval for a population proportion by first finding the critical value and the margin of error. They find confidence intervals for real-life scenarios and use those intervals to make a judgment about a claim. Finally, they use two formulas for finding the required s...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/estimating-a-population-proportion_1
