Make the Basket
Students will use parametric equations to model two physical situations: making a free throw (basketball) and hitting a home run (baseball). Students will begin exploring the models by using sliders to change to the angle and velocity of the shot or hit. They will then move the time slider to see...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/make-the-basket
NASA - Rendezvous For Two
When the space shuttle launches from NASA Kennedy Space Center, it must launch within a certain time frame (called a launch window) in order to successfully dock with the ISS. Launch windows are calculated so that the space shuttle will reach an orbit that is slightly lower than the ISS, but in t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--rendezvous-for-two

Graphing Systems at the Races
This activity involves solving a system of equations created from a problem I wrote about a greyhound racing to catch a toy rabbit on a mechanical arm. The ending activity involves solving a similar system, only involving another problem I wrote based on the end of a NASCAR race.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphing-systems-at-the-races
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Waste Not" - Different or Not?
In the episode, the FBI discovers that children in the area of a sinkhole seem to have an unusually high occurrence of cancer. FBI agent Megan Reeves believes that this might represent a "cancer cluster," but Charlie warns her not to jump to this conclusion too quickly. Students will use a statis...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--waste-not--different-or-not
Reflecting a Triangle in the Coordinate Plane
