Breaking Spaghetti
Students will do a lab where they keep track of the number of strands of spaghetti versus how many "weights" it takes to break the spaghetti. They will enter lists and create a scatter plot. Students will also find the equation for the line of best fit. The TI-Navigator System can then be used...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/breaking-spaghetti

Students will understand patterns, relations. and functions using mathematical models to represent and understand quantitative relationships.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finite-differences_1
Roots of Radical Equations
Square and cubic root equations are given for students to graph and find intersections with the x-axis.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/roots-of-radical-equations_1
Sums of Sequences
Students develop formulas for the sum of arithmetic and geometric sequences and then find the sum of sequences using the formulas developed.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sums-of-sequences
At a Snail's Pace
In this activity, students plot a mathematical relationship that defines a spiral. They use technology to create a spiral and to plot a set of ordered pairs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/at-a-snails-pace
Ball Toss Activity
Students receive data from tossing a ball into the air. They are to graph it, set a window, and analyze the height, how long it was in the air, etc. They then find an equation that models the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ball-toss-activity
Eating Out
Students examine data and make graphs to represent the data. They interpret the data and answer questions. They also learn to calculate percentages and angle measures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/eating-out
What Goes Up Must Come Down
In this activity, students use the calculator to solve quadratic equations. They use the quadratic formula to determine the vertex and the x-intercepts of the graph of a quadratic function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-goes-up-must-come-down
