Fractions and Skittles
Students will predict how many of each color will be in one pack of skittles before they open the package. Once they open the package, they will determine how close their predictioins are to the actual amount. Students then will come up with ratios and averages.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fractions-and-skittles
Set Design
Students will use similarity concepts, and the dimensions of the carvings on Mt. Rushmore to create a proportional representation of the carvings for a stage backdrop.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/set-design
Stepping Stones
Students use volume formulas and proportional reasoning to calculate the amount of concrete needed to make stepping stones of a specific size.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stepping-stones
Creating Word Problems
Students write word problems based on the whole numbers generated by the calculator. They decide on an operation to solve the problems. Finally, they analyze the problems to determine the problem characteristics when using operations on whole numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/creating-word-problems
Dividing Notes
Students create an altered musical melody by dividing fractions. They compute the value of notes in terms of fractions and make their sum equal to the time signature.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dividing-notes
Number and Operation Sense: Rational Numbers
Students learn to use the calculator to collect a set of data in order to identify patterns that illustrate important rational number concepts: the relationship between rational numbers and division, and equivalent fraction and decimal forms for rational numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-and-operation-sense-rational-numbers
Banquet Meal
Students use proportional reasoning skills to increase a family-size recipe to a banquet-size recipe.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/banquet-meal
Thrift Store Markdowns
Students will calculate a series of discounts using increasing unit fractions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/thrift-store-markdowns
Pizza Extravaganza
Students will conduct a survey of the class to determine favorite pizza toppings. They use this sample information to predict the preferred toppings for the school and use the TI-15 to help them with the calculations to plan a school-wide pizza party.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pizza-extravaganza
Making Cookies
Students will reduce a cafeteria recipe to suit a household recipe. They use compatible numbers to choose smaller measurements while retaining the original proportions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-cookies
Meal Manager
Students will use percentages and proportional reasoning skills to solve problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/meal-manager
In Round Numbers
Students will develop and test rules for rounding whole numbers and decimal fractions. They will use the information to solve real-world problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/in-round-numbers
