Starting with y=x^2 going all the way to (in part 2)y=ax^2+bx+c, how do changes in the quadratic equation/function change the appearance of the parabola.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-parabola-and-its-equation-part-1-and
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
Graphing Families of Quadratic Functions
Students will use the Transfrm app to explore families of quadratic functions. Generalization about the effect of a, b and c coefficients have on the shape and position of the graph in general form, and the effect of a, h, and k in vertex form, will be summarized by students in their own words. S...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphing-families-of-quadratic-functions
Direct Variation with Powers: Surface Area and Volume
Students find the approximate surface area and volume of an apple, measuring circumference 3 ways, using the mean of the measurements to find the radius. Each students enters the results in a Table on the board.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/direct-variation-with-powers-surface-area-and-volume
Olympic 100 Meter Dash Times: Women vs. Men
In this activity, students will analyze data from 1960 to 1992 to determine when mens' and womens' winning olympic times will be equal. Students use regression and systems of equations to answer a series of questions about the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/olympic-100-meter-dash-times-women-vs--men
Balloons
This activity is about gathering data to create a scatter plot and then look at a line of best fit. Students will measure the circumference of a blown up balloon and then they will time how long it takes the balloon to deflate. They will enter this information in to their lists and then graph t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/balloons
How Close is Close?
Students compute statistical measures like the mean, standard deviation, and variance of the data set. They understand how measures of variability can be interpreted.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-close-is-close
Regressions of Olympic Proportions
Students use the Manual-Fit and Linear Regression commands to find lines of best fit to model Olympic data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/regressions-of-olympic-proportions
