Fencing the Dog Yard
Algebra 1 students investigate how the area of a dog yard changes based upon a fixed amount of fencing. The concepts presented are a nice introduction to working with quadratics.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fencing-the-dog-yard
Graphing Relationships
In this activity, students explore information about a graph based on the first and second derivatives. They learn that a function's derivative is positive when the function increases and negative when the function decreases. They learn that the second derivative is positive when the graph is con...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphing-relationships
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
The "Great Pyramid" - Rate of Change
Students will explore different rates of change. Using the TI-Nspire students will be expected to make predictions based upon information that a Pharaoh has given.
