The Shrinking Dollar
Students examine the long term effects of inflation. They compute the increase in cost price due to compounding of inflation rates every year. They recognize that this increase in cost price is exponential.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-shrinking-dollar
The Ordinary Man
Students estimate the heights of people and compare the estimates to the actual heights in a scatter plot.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-ordinary-man
Remember Me?
Students use the calculator to compute the value of expressions involving order of operations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/remember-me
CDs Anyone?
Students write rules for real world functions. They make a table to compare function values and graph linear functions on the coordinate plane.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cds-anyone
Repeating Elevens
Students compute multiples of 11, 111, 1111, and so forth, search for patterns in the products, and write generalizations of those patterns.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/repeating-elevens
Expanding Space Station
Students will find and compare function rules for a given pattern. They also evaluate variable expressions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/expanding-space-station
Light Years Away
Students develop models for a light year and compare numbers written in scientific notation and in standard notation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-years-away
Storefront Signs
Students learn to find area and explore the quadratic function. They compare the areas and patterns of squares within a square.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/storefront-signs
Going Out of Business
Students use the Pythagorean theorem to compute the diagonals of rectangles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/going-out-of-business
Magic Nines
Students compute multiples of 9, 99, 999, and so forth, search for patterns in the products, and write generalizations of those patterns.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/magic-nines
The Best Cell Phone Plan
Students will compare two cell phone plans and determine which plan is better for a specific situation. They will utilize both tables and graphs to make their decisions. Students need prior experience writing linear models for this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-best-cell-phone-plan
What Makes a Food Nutritional?
Students will analyze select nutritional values of specific food products and then compare those values to the recommended daily allowances published by the U.S.D.A. They will calculate percentages and fractions based upon the information they find.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-makes-a-food-nutritional
Circle Around
Students compute the circumference and area of circles. They understand that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is a value (3.14) called pi.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circle-around
Will Girls and Boys Be Equal?
Students explore concepts in probability and statistics. In this activity, they model a situation to find experimental probability and construct a box-and-whisker plot. They compare the experimental and theoretical probabilities for the situation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/will-girls-and-boys-be-equal
Let’s Count the Ways
Students will be introduced to the different ways to calculate numbers of outcomes, including using the counting principle. They will also evaluate expressions using permutations of data without repeat elements, both manually and on the TI-30XS MultiView™ calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lets-count-the-ways
Midpoint Quadrilateral
This problem presents an opportunity for students to think about properties of quadrilaterals, and also to work on confirming observations through geometric reasoning. If your state has adopted the Common Core State Standards, this alignment might be helpful: Geometry: Prove Geometric Theorems G....https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/midpoint-quadrilateral
Exploring Pi with the TI-Nspire
We've all done the lesson where you use a string to compare the measurements of the circumference and the diameter of a circle. Students can now explore that same activity on the TI-Nspire.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-pi-with-the-tinspire
Chinese Decimals
This is a game to practice comparing and ordering decimal numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/chinese-decimals
