Students explore curve fitting and translations of the parabola.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/st--louis-curves-or-arch-you-pick
How Many Solutions?
In this activity, students graph systems of linear functions to determine the number of solutions. In the investigation, students are given one line and challenged to draw a second line that creates a system with a particular number of solutions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-many-solutions_1
Statistics for Math B
Students will determine the mean, median, mode and standard deviation of collected data. They will make a frequency histogram of the grouped data, both on graph paper, and on the TI 83+.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/statistics-for-math-b
Permutations & Combinations
Students explore permutations and combinations by arranging letters when order does and does not make a difference.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/permutations--combinations
STOP
Students use an interactive page to calculate the speed of the car, given a stopping distance, and then approximate stopping distance, given the rate of the car.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stop
How Much Is That Phone Call?
Students will learn how step functions apply to real-world situations, about the notation associated with the greatest integer and least integer functions, and how to transform the greatest integer function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-much-is-that-phone-call
Parametrics Yes! Yes! Yes!
Overview and applications using parametrics in Algebra I and II.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parametrics-yes-yes-yes
Supertall Skyscrapers
Students measure scale drawings of famous "supertall" skyscrapers and solve more proportions to find the heights of other skyscrapers drawn with the same scale.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/supertall-skyscrapers_1
Parametric Equations and Graph Data Bases
Parametric equations are equations that express the coordinates x and y as separate functions of a common third variable, called the parameter. You can use parametric equations to determine the position of an object over time.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parametric-equations-and-graph-data-bases
Inequalities, They Are Not Just Linear Anymore!
Students study quadratic relationships and explore the process of graphing quadratic inequalities and systems of quadratic inequalities. They will solve these inequalities algebraically and graph them on a coordinate plane.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inequalities-they-are-not-just-linear-anymore
Systems of Equations

Properties of Logarithms
Students use a combination of algebra and graphing to discover the properties of logarithms.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-logarithms_1
Recursive Sequences
Students use the sequence mode of the graphing calculator to generate recursive sequences and then examine the values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/recursive-sequences
Quadratic Regression with Transformation Graphing
Students will enter data into lists and graph scatter plots and perform a multiple regression on the plots. They will also make predictions or draw conclusions from the quadratic model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quadratic-regression-with-transformation-graphing
Solutions
In this LearningCheck™ students decide which ordered pairs are solutions of equations in two variables.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solutions
Intersection
In this activity, students will investigate modeling the motion of two people to find where they will meet and at what rate each was walking.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/intersection
Properties of Parabolas
Students interpret the equation for a parabola in vertex form and gain a visual understanding of a parabola's focal width.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-parabolas_1
Parabola Construction
Students construct parabolas using the focus and directrix definition. They also explore how the location of the focus with respect to the directrix affects the shape of the parabola.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parabola-construction
Identifying Types of Correlation from a Graph and Calculator
Students will identify different types of correlations graphically and by using the linear regression analysis obtained from a TI-84 Plus calculator. Students will also obtain and know the significance of a correlation coefficient as a result of this lesson.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/identifying-types-of-correlation-from-a-graph-and-calculator
Orbit Of Jupiter
This activity explores models for the elliptical orbit of Jupiter.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/orbit-of-jupiter
How Fast Is Your Racer
Students become familiar with collecting and analyzing linear data. Students first perform a manually linear fit to their collected data, and are then introduced to the linear regression analysis capabilities of the calculator. The time taken for mousetrap racers to cover predetermined distances ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-fast-is-your-racer
