Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students receive two Cabri Jr. files of quadrilaterals on a coordinate plane. They use their knowledge of quadrilaterals to give each one the most precise name. They may find the length and/or slope of the sides using the measuring tools of Cabri Jr. to assist in their classification.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-quadrilaterals_1
Division of Integers
Students use StudyCards(tm) to practice completing division equations that include positive and negative integers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/division-of-integers
Maximizing the Area of a Rectangle
This activity is adapted from one of the TI books. Students measure lengths and widths of rectangles and record for the class to see. Each group's rectangle has the same perimeter, but different areas. After a discussion, students make predictions, a scatterplot, and quadratic regression. An exte...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/maximizing-the-area-of-a-rectangle
You're So Dense - TI-83
Students investigate the relationship between density of an object, its mass and its volume. They use mass and volume measurements to determine the density of pennies. They compare the density of pre-1983 and post-1984 pennies.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/youre-so-dense--ti83
Quadratic Regression with Transformation Graphing
Students will enter data into lists and graph scatter plots and perform a multiple regression on the plots. They will also make predictions or draw conclusions from the quadratic model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quadratic-regression-with-transformation-graphing
Greatest Area Activity
In this activity students will explore area as it compares to length of rectangles with a fixed perimeter by creating lists of the possible dimensions and the areas of these rectangles. Students will then graph a scatterplot of the data, find the quadratic regression, and explore the table of val...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/greatest-area-activity_1
Walk My Walk
A two-part activity that uses a CBR to develop the notion of slope and y-intercept through various walking activities. Part A develops a general notion of how changes in walking are reflected in various graphical representations. Part B formalizes the ideas of (1) slope and its relationship to sp...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/walk-my-walk
The Quest for Roots of Higher Order Equations
Students learn how to approximate the roots of any polynomial equation of any order by first using tables, and then by tracing along the graph to the point where the curve intersectshttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-quest-for-roots-of-higher-order-equations
Scatterplots and Correlation with TI-83
Students learn how to enter a list of data and use these lists to graph two-variable statistics. They learn how to analyze the resulting scatterplots to assess the correlation between two variables.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scatterplots-and-correlation-with-ti83
Storefront Signs
Students learn to find area and explore the quadratic function. They compare the areas and patterns of squares within a square.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/storefront-signs
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
What's Your Mileage?
Students use linear equations to model and solve real-world problems. Students also see the correlation between the graph of an equation and its calculated slope by plotting graphs by hand and then calculating slopes with the calculator and comparing.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-your-mileage
Circle Around
Students compute the circumference and area of circles. They understand that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is a value (3.14) called pi.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/circle-around
Count the Differences
Students are given data, asked to find the finite differences, and then use this to find a polynomial that models the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/count-the-differences_1
Find the Equation of the Line
Teachers and/or students will look at given information (two points, a point and a slope, a point and a parallel line, and a point and a perpendicular line) and have to find the linear function that works. As the activity is occuring on the calculator, the students have a worksheet to record the...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/find-the-equation-of-the-line

Exploring Geometric Sequences
Students explore geometric series by considering the effect of the value for the common ratio and first term using sliders.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-geometric-sequences_1
Polly, Want Some Division?
In this activity, students will use polynomial calculations to determine quotients and remainders when performing polynomial division using CAS commands. The Remainder Theorem is introduced and applied to identify roots or zeros and to determine function values. Graphs are incorporated to visuall...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polly-want-some-division
