Round and Round She Goes...
Students will explore relationships on a unit circle by identifying coordinates of points given an angle measure in degrees.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/round-and-round-she-goes
Vertical and Phase Shifts
Students explore vertical and phase shifts of sine and cosine functions and determine the effect that each change has upon the shape of the graph.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vertical-and-phase-shifts
Graphs of the OTHER Trig Functions
This lesson involves providing opportunities for students to explore and make sense of the graphs of the cotangent, secant, and cosecant functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-the-other-trig-functions_1
Trigonometric Proofs
Students will perform trigonometric proofs and use the graphing capabilities of the TI-Nspire for verification.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trigonometric-proofs
Applications of Domain and Range
Determine domain and range in real-world situations. Writing and graphing equations to model problems. Recognize the meaning of domain and range in the real-world situations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/applications-of-domain-and-range
An Application of Parabolas
Students discover how the parameters of an equation of a parabola affect its graph and affect a real-world problem.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/an-application-of-parabolas
Around the Vertex in 80 Days
Students move a quadratic function in the coordinate plane to specific points to observe how the vertex form of the equation changes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/around-the-vertex-in-80-days
Count the Differences
Students are given data, asked to find the finite differences, and then use this to find a polynomial that models the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/count-the-differences_1
Constant of Variation
Students explore how the constant of variation, k, affects the graph of direct and inverse variations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constant-of-variation
Limacon Curve - 84
In this activity for the TI-84 family, students will observe different graphs of polar limaçon curves. Students will discover four different types of limaçon curves and their relationship to the ratio of a to b.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/limacon-curve-@-84
Exploring Motion in the Plane
In this activity, students will use a TNS file for visualizing the velocity and acceleration vectors at specific times associated with a particle as it moves along a curve.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-motion-in-the-plane
Factoring Composite Numbers
In this activity, students will review terms associated with prime factors, as well as practice factoring into a factor tree and the prime factorization into exponent form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/factoring-composite-numbers
One Step at a Time
Students solve one-step equations involving addition and multiplication by substituting possible values of a variable.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-step-at-a-time
Testing for Truth
Students identify whether points lie within a shaded region that is bounded by linear inequalities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/testing-for-truth
The Box Method
Students discover how to factor a quadratic function using the Box Method.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-box-method
Closure Tables
In this activity, students create and complete closure tables to determine if the sets of whole numbers, integers, even numbers, and odd numbers are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/closure-tables
The Dirty Dawg Salon
In this activity, students will work through a scenario of a business venture involving washing dogs. They will translate fixed and variable costs to a cost function and make a decision about how much to charge to wash per dog. When the break-even point is found, students must interpret it to ans...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-dirty-dawg-salon
Application of Slopes
Students will apply the concept of slope to a real-world problem about building a staircase. They will use the slope ratio, vertical change over horizontal change, to find the slope of staircase. Then, students will recognize how a positive or negative slope applies in a real-world situation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/application-of-slopes
Applications of Parabolas
In this activity, students will look for both number patterns and visual shapes that go along with quadratic relationships. Two applications are introduced after some basic patterns in the first two problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/applications-of-parabolas_1
Common Denominator
In this activity, students will use an interactive model that multiplies the fraction by "1" to help determine the common denominator. Then they will use what they have learned to add and subtract fractions without the same denominators.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/common-denominator_1
Exploring Slope, Including a Study of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
This activity contains 4 problems. The first 2 allow the students to notice relationships of slopes and y-intercepts to the location of lines. The second 2 problems help the students find the relationships between the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/activity-with-slope-including-a-study-of-parallel-and-perpendicular-lines
Slopes with Starburst
