Students learn how to graph the first n terms of a sequence, how to set the window and how to evaluate the nth term of a sequence. They also explore the Fibonacci sequence and Web plots.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sequences
NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Assassin" - Experimenting with Paper Airplanes
In the episode "Assassin," Charlie and Larry discuss a paper airplane contest and some factors that affect the flight of a paper airplane. Because it is much simpler, a paper airplane can be easily modified and then tested to see how those changes affect its flight.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--assassin--experimenting-with-paper-airplanes

What's in a Name? Explorations in the Coordinate Plane from Manipulative to Graphing Calculator
Students will plot points in a coordinate plane and reflect those points across the axes using a MIRA and then using the graphing calculator STAT, STAT PLOT, and GRAPH menus graph the image on the graphing calculator screen.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-in-a-name--explorations-in-the-coordinate-plane-from-manipulative-to-graphing-calculator
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
One of the Many Ways
Students graph polynomials to determine the value and number of zeros for a given polynomial.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-of-the-many-ways
Double Tree
Students visually explore geometric sequences by modeling the growth of a tree that doubles in height every year.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/double-tree
Design Curves
Students plot points then use regression lines to design a vehicle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/design-curves
Determine Equation of Absolute Value Function Given 3 Noncollinear Points
Given 3-noncollinear points, find the absolute value that contains all 3 points.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/determine-equation-of-absolute-value-function-given-3-noncollinear-points
Approximation of Pi
Students will measure the circumference and diameter of a variety of different circles. They will graph the class' values of (d,c) on the coordinate plane and use linear regression to approximate pi.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/approximation-of-pi
Finding Linear Models
Students graph a scatter plot, find average rate of change, develop a linear model, find a linear regression and a median/median line for a set of data graphed in a scatter plot, and predict profit.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-linear-models
Factoring Composite Numbers
Students will review some of the terms associated with prime factors. A Frayer Model (Square) is provided allowing the teacher to assess students’ knowledge of the concept prime.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/factoring-composite-numbers
