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
Beat the System
This can be used as an introduction to Systems of Equations. Students can work in groups or alone. They are shown graphs of the three different types of systems of equations and then asked to write equations of lines to create another set of systems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/beat-the-system
Slopes with Starburst
Students will use Starburst to conduct an experiment that analyzes slope. The data will be entered into TI-Nspire and evaluated. Students explore concepts such as flat/steeper slopes and constant versus varied slope. Students also simulate distance versus time graphs using meter sticks and hot...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/slopes-with-starburst
Vertex form of a Parabola
Students will use graphing technology to understand a quadratic function written in vertex form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/taks-vertex-form-of-a-parabola
Sums of Sequences
In this activity, students will develop formulas for the sum of arithmetic and geometric sequences. Students will then find the sum of sequences using the formulas developed.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sums-of-sequences_1
Trig Patterns
In this activity, students will use the unit circle to examine patterns in the six trigonometric functions. Students will compare angles created with the x-axis in all four quadrants and discuss with one another what is happening at each coordinate as they move the point around the circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trig-patterns-@ns

Recursive Sequences
In this activity, students will use the sequence mode of the graphing calculator to generate recursive sequences and then examine the values. They will also write recursive sequence formulas for given sequences.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/recursive-sequences_1
Area of the Missing Square
In this activity, students will be introduced to an area model for representing a quadratic equation. Students will explore the relationship between the value of b and c, in y = x2 + bx + c, form of the quadratic equation. The relationship will be examined with integer and non-integer values in o...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/area-of-the-missing-square_1
Once and For All...Absolutely
The activity is designed to be a lesson in solving absolute value inequalities. The intent is to distinguish the kinds of solutions that absolute value inequalities have and the forms of stating the solutions. More importantly the activity considers two methods of solutions: a graphing method and...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/once-and-for-all---absolutely
The Open Box: An Exploration of Maximum Volume
The students will solve the problem of finding the maximum volume of a box cut from an 18 x 24 cm peice of paper in several ways. The student will actually cut out and form several different boxes. The student will fill the boxes with "starburst" candies and then use their TI-Nspires to analyze...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-open-box-an-exploration-of-maximum-volume
Circle Product Theorems
Students use dynamic models to find patterns. These patterns are the Chord-Chord, Secant-Secant, and Secant-Tangent Theorems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circle-product-theorems_1
Interior & Exterior Angles of a Triangle
In this activity, students will measure interior and exterior angles of a triangle and make conjectures about their relationships.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/interior--exterior-angles-of-a-triangle
Constructing Similar Triangles
Students investigate three different methods of constructing similar triangles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-similar-triangles
NASA - An Astronaut in Motion
To better understand how astronauts function in their suits and their environment, researchers at NASA Johnson Space Center’s Anthropometry and Biomechanics Facility (ABF) are studying motor control and evaluating human physical measurement, variation, and movement. To study human movement, ABF r...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--an-astronaut-in-motion
Application of a Circle: Angles and Arcs
Students use the properties of circles, angles, and arcs to help design a courtyard with a star-shaped design.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/application-of-a-circle-angles-and-arcs
Basic Trig Transformations- 84
In this activity, students will use the Transformation Application to change the values of parameters in trigonometric functions and to determine the effect that each change has on the shape of the graph. Students will then use this knowledge to write equations for sine and cosine functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/basic-trig-transformations_84
