Geometric Sequences and Series
Imagine you just arrived home from school, you’re really hungry. You decide the block of chocolate will help you with your homework. Pretty soon half the block is gone, so you quickly put it back in the refrigerator. Your brother arrives home, spots the half eaten block of chocolate and imm...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/geometric-sequences-and-series

Tower of Hanoi
Students explore the relationship between the number of discs and moves required to solve the classic “Tower of Hanoi” problem. The TI-Nspire file contains an interactive model produced by Andy Kemp. The interactive model allows you to change the number of disks and automaticall...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tower-of-hanoi
Vernier - Energy in Food
Students will use the temperature probe to measure temperature changes to measure and compare the energy content of different foods.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--energy-in-food
Vectors In Component Form
Students experiment with an interactive 2 dimensional vector and observe the corresponding changes to its representation in i and j component form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vectors-in-component-form
Water Quality Testing
This water quality project has been designed around a monthly sampling routine for the extent of the project scope. One of the sampling days involved three different classes, each class sampling a different station. This project measured several biotic / abiotic factors to determine the interre...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/water-quality-testing
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
Students generate random polynomials and observe the distribution of the zeros on the complex plane. From the distributions students are able to draw conclusions about the zeros, and therefore roots, of a polynomial in order to gain a better visual understanding of the Fundamental Theorem of Alge...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fundamental-theorem-of-algebra
Tool - Unit Conversion
In this lesson, students are introducted to the basics of how to effectively use this tool. This tool can be used alone, or you can copy/paste it into another TNS document.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tool--unit-conversion
Pendulum Swing – Part 1
Students use a motion detector (CBR) and pendulum (fishing float) to collect data for the motion of a pendulum. The quality of the data never ceases to amaze students and teachers. Students align practical knowledge, logic and familiarity with the various parameters to transform a basic trigono...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pendulum-swing--part-1
Tool - Chemical Balance

Like Moths Around a Flame
In this lesson, students examine data about moths and draw conclusions of how the environment impacts their populations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/like-moths-around-a-flame
Ecology Assessment
This TI-Nspire™ question set (.tns) has assessment questions relating to Biology: Ecology.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ecology-assessment
Gradient of a function
This activity introduces the notion of the gradient of a curve. Initial exploration involves a dynamic tangent where students can use prior knowledge of the gradient of a straight line to determine if the slope is negative, zero or positive. The second stage of the activity goes one step further ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/gradient-of-a-function
Fill the Vase
Students interpret graphs of empirical data with respect to rate of change of the height of water in vases of different shapes that are being filled at a constant rate. Students are provided with a range of graphs and vases. For each graph they must reshape the vase in order to match the volume –...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fill-the-vase
