Quilt Block Areas
Students will draw and color scaled drawings of traditional quilt block designs. They then find the appropriate fraction, decimal, and percent of the overall design for each color.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quilt-block-areas
What's So Special about 11?
Students will compute multiples of numbers in search of patterns. As a class, they'll discover patterns in multiples of 9; then they'll do the same with patterns in multiples of 11. They will then practice writing the rule for 11, both verbally and algebraically, to summarize the discovered pattern.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11_1
Quilt Blocks
Students will see how fractions, decimals, and percents are interrelated, then explore and learn how to convert between them. Students will also practice estimating.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quilt-blocks_1
The Ordinary Man
Students will estimate the heights of various celebrities in inches. They will convert inches to feet, and they will interpret the calculator results to express the estimated heights in feet and inches. Finally, they will graph the estimated heights and actual heights of the celebrities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-ordinary-man_1
What's Your Mileage?
Students use linear equations to model and solve real-world problems. Students also see the correlation between the graph of an equation and its calculated slope by plotting graphs by hand and then calculating slopes with the calculator and comparing.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-your-mileage
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
Find the Square Root...
Students who understand the basic concept of square roots learn how to evaluate expressions and equations that have rational and irrational solutions. Students also explore solutions to equations and investigate the differences between exact and approximate solutions using the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/find-the-square-root
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
The First Twelve Days of School
Students learn to organize data, look for patterns, and solve problems. They will count the number of "coins" in a variation of The Twelve Days of Christmas song. They will also generalize the patterns through symbolic expressions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-first-twelve-days-of-school
LRAM_RRAM_MRAM -- A Graphical Investigation of how area under a curve is approx with rectangles.
This activity is designed for the student to investigate how area bounded by a curve and the x-axis can be approximated with areas of rectangles using LRAM, RRAM, MRAM.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lram_rram_mram--a-graphical-investigation-of-how-area-under-a-curve-is-approx-with-rectangles
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
How Hot Is It?
Students who are familiar with the two most common standards of measuring temperature learn how to reliably convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. Students also see how order of operations is crucial in an equation, through discussion and data entry on the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-hot-is-it

3x3 Linear Systems of Equations
This lesson involves connecting graphical representations of systems of linear equations in three variables to the number of solutions of those systems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/3x3-linear-systems-of-equations
Domain, Range and Function Mapping
Students explore the concept of domain, range and function mapping through a variety of visual representations. Interactive sets, ordered pairs and graphs provide for opportunities for students to explore, the idea is then flipped as students build a function to match the domain and range supplied.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/domain-range-and-function-mapping
