Shall I Double Up or Take the Million? Exponential Growth
If you were given the opportunity to be given a permanent monthly salary of 1,000,000 for 30 days of work or a salary beginning with a penny on day one and doubling each day for 30 days which would you choose?https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shall-i-double-up-or-take-the-million-exponential-growth
Points on a Line
The Points on a Line activity is intended to develop student understanding of slope of a line. This activity is based on the concept of vertical change and horizontal change when moving between two points on a line. Students will perform an action on the TNS file and observe the consequences of ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/points-on-a-line
Find the Equation of the Line
Teachers and/or students will look at given information (two points, a point and a slope, a point and a parallel line, and a point and a perpendicular line) and have to find the linear function that works. As the activity is occuring on the calculator, the students have a worksheet to record the...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/find-the-equation-of-the-line
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
Birthday Simulation
In this activity, the students will conduct a simulation to predict the probability that two people in a room of thirty will have the same birthday.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/birthday-simulation
Rectangles and Parabolas
Students will tackle a traditional problem from the Algebra I curriculum geometrically, numerically, graphically, and algebraically: Sixty feet of fencing is purchased for the grounds crew to fence off a rectangular portion of property for a garden. The owner has made it perfectly clear that h...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/rectangles-and-parabolas
Guess My Slope
Students will estimate the slope of six lines. Students will then return to each line and use the measurement capabilities of the TI-nspire to find the actual slope of each line. Students will find the absolute value of the differences between their estimates and the actual slopes in order to d...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/guess-my-slope
Connecting Algebra 2 to Statistics
Once students learn how to solve exponential and logarithmic equations, the students can take data and decide if an appropriate model is exponential. This activity will require students to create scatterplots and to have the knowlegde of the relationship being linear or nonlinear. This activity...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/connecting-algebra-2-to-statistics
Pythagorean Proofs
In this activity, students will explore proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem. Students will explore the proof of the Pythagorean Theorem using area of squares, area of triangles and trapezoids, and by dissection. Students will then be asked to apply what they have learned about the Pythagorean Theorem.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pythagorean-proofs_1
