The Garbage Problem
Students examine data about garbage production and graphically represent data in a scatter plot. From the data students make predictions. They develop an understanding of the environmental impact of trash accumulation and the need for a plan to deal with potential garbage problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-garbage-problem
Greatest Area Activity
In this activity students will explore area as it compares to length of rectangles with a fixed perimeter by creating lists of the possible dimensions and the areas of these rectangles. Students will then graph a scatterplot of the data, find the quadratic regression, and explore the table of val...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/greatest-area-activity_1
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
Guess the Ages
In this activity, the teacher will pick favorite "famous" people and ask the students to guess their ages. The names and birth dates are attached ("Famous Persons Birth Dates"). Participants use the calculator to enter the information and to view results.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/guess-the-ages
The Slope of the Tangent Line (Part2)
In this activity, students graph the cubic and quadratic functions. They also graph the slope values of the tangent lines for each of the function graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-slope-of-the-tangent-line-part2

Home for the Holidays
Thanksgiving Holiday activity for Algebra students. Linear data taken from the internet and used to create a linear model of the class data.Students will then discover the slope of the line is the speed of the car in miles per hour. Activity can be modified to be used for Algebra I or Algebra II....https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/home-for-the-holidays
How Far Did You Walk?
In this activity, students will find the distance traveled when the velocity is constant by examining the area under the Velocity-Time graph and applying the formula d = r * t. They will also find the distance traveled for motion when the velocity is not constant by approximating the area under t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-far-did-you-walk
Operating on Matrices
