Students are introduced to the Cartesian plane.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/where-is-the-point
Supertall Skyscrapers
In this activity, students use their handhelds to measure scale drawings of famous “supertall” skyscrapers. They first check that the Sears Tower is drawn to scale and then use their measurements to calculate that scale. Next, they write and solve proportions to find the heights of other skyscrap...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/supertall-skyscrapers
Lines of Fit
This lesson involves informally fitting a straight line for a given data set that represents mean verbal and mathematics scores on SAT in 2004 across all 50 states and Washington, D.C.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lines-of-fit
How Does a Spring Scale Work?
In this lesson, teachers will use a spring to help students learn that the constant of proportionality between two proportional quantities is the unit rate of change.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-does-a-spring-scale-work
The Impossible Task
