Behaviors-Linear Function
This StudyCards™ stack teaches and tests on the linear function. Shows connection between the function parameters and the resulting geometric behaviors of the linear function. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, ch. 2.3, 4.1.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/behaviorslinear-function

Repeating Elevens
Students compute multiples of 11, 111, 1111, and so forth, search for patterns in the products, and write generalizations of those patterns.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/repeating-elevens
Roots
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include roots, powers of 10, and problem solving.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/roots
Light Years Away
Students develop models for a light year and compare numbers written in scientific notation and in standard notation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-years-away
Number Power!
Students explore patterns and rules in dealing with exponents and logarithms. They evaluate expressions with exponents and logarithms and display them in various notations. They will use their calculators to discover the power of exponents and their usefulness in the world.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-power
Divisibility Rules Using Scientific Calculators
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include number theory, divisibility rules, multiples, factors, and problem-solving skills.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/divisibility-rules-using-scientific-calculators

Students learn to calculate volume of a sphere and a rectangular prism. They explore methods of determining how many volleyballs can be placed in a room.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stuff-it
Computing by Degrees!
Students use the calculator to solve trigonometry problems using sine, cosine, and tangent. They also find inverses of trigonometric functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/computing-by-degrees
Going Out of Business
Students use the Pythagorean theorem to compute the diagonals of rectangles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/going-out-of-business
Power Patterns
Students investigate patterns that show relationships between powers and roots. They learn to identify strategies to be used to find important patterns in data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/power-patterns
Magic Nines
Students compute multiples of 9, 99, 999, and so forth, search for patterns in the products, and write generalizations of those patterns.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/magic-nines
What's So Special about 11?
Students will compute multiples of numbers in search of patterns. As a class, they'll discover patterns in multiples of 9; then they'll do the same with patterns in multiples of 11. They will then practice writing the rule for 11, both verbally and algebraically, to summarize the discovered pattern.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11_1
The Antics of Statistics
Students learn/review some of the different measures of statistics and see how to use those measures to analyze a data set. Students also participate in a discussion about how statistics can be used to achieve a variety of results.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-antics-of-statistics_1
Who Needs Mixed Numbers?
Students divide and multiply mixed numbers and fractions in real-life examples relating to carpentry.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-needs-mixed-numbers
