Antennas
Describes how to perform basic antenna and radiation calculations with the TI-89. Antenna patterns, radiation resistance, radiation integrals, and phased array patterns are included.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/antennas
Lifting a Lion
In this activity, students will practice solving a real-world problem. Using a toy lion and a lever, students first discover how much work is needed to raise a toy lion. They will then use proportions to determine the force needed to lift a real lion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lifting-a-lion
It's the Place that Counts
Students learn to add using place-value material and a calculator. They make connections between base-ten numerals and the quantities they represent.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/its-the-place-that-counts
Recurring Remainders
Students will use the calculator to investigate the patterns formed by remainders in whole-number division.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/recurring-remainders
Transient Circuit Analysis: Numeric
Describes how the differential equation plotter is used to solve the second-order circuit presented in Chapter 2 (Topic 8) by expressing it as a system of first-order differential equations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transient-circuit-analysis--numeric
Amazing Appetites
Students learn to count and solve original word problems. They learn to add by combining sets and subtract when removing the set. They use manipulatives to reflect the reasoning used in problem solving.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/amazing-appetites
a-MAZE-ing Secret Paths
Students learn to add and subtract numbers using the calculator. They investigate patterns in place value and explore relationships between numbers on the hundred chart.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/amazeing-secret-paths
Action-Packed Stories
Students learn to use whole numbers and the operations of addition and subtraction. They choose a number and create a story using the number selected and illustrate the number story. They represent the action in the story on the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/actionpacked-stories
Who's in the House
Students construct a model of a house, drawing pictures of the people and pets in the house. Students use skip counting strategies to find possible combinations of people and pets that live in their classmates houses with the help of pictures and TI-10.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whos-in-the-house
Financial Calculations
Describes how to use the TI-89 to calculate interest, present worth, loan repayments and so forth. These methods utilize the time-value-of-money.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/financial-calculations
Marching Columns
Students investigate constructing arrangements of different numbers of manipulatives into equal groups. They learn to use mathematical language, identify patterns with numbers, recognize the commutative property, and transfer the arrangements made with manipulatives to grid paper.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/marching-columns
Making Picture Graphs
Students learn to make picture graphs with symbols that represent more than one piece of data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-picture-graphs
Football Scores
Students will determine the possible combinations of scoring events in a football game to reach a specific end score.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/football-scores
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
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
Finding the area of a perfect polygon.
To find the area of a "regular polygon."https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-the-area-of-a-perfect-polygon
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
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
