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
Using TRNSFRM APP
This activity introduces the use of TRNSFRM APP and the effect of A and B in AX + B as well as discovering Amplitude, Period and Vertical shift of sinusoids with the aid of a slinky!https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/using-trnsfrm-app

Match the Graph (circles)
Students will learn about the equation for a circle by using a Study Cards stack. Later, students will attempt to match the graph of a circle from a digital picture, using the form learned previously, and approximating the center and radius of the graph.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/match-the-graph-circles
Measures of Central Tendency Using Scientific Calculators
Concepts and skills covered in this activity include: Modeling mathematics in real-world problem situations Relating procedures in equivalent representations in different contexts Understanding and applying the measures of central tendencyhttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/measures-of-central-tendency-using-scientific-calculators
How Fast for Whiplash? Going with the Flow
Students recognize direct variation as a rate of change and apply it in problem situations. They also use average rates of change to make decisions in problem situations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-fast-for-whiplash-going-with-the-flow
Number Crunching! Number Munching!
Students comprehend the order of operations and apply this understanding to simplify and evaluate expressions. They also learn to represent problems that involve variable quantities with expressions and use the calculator as a tool to solve problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-crunching-number-munching
Quilt Block Areas
Students will draw and color scaled drawings of traditional quilt block designs. They then find the appropriate fraction, decimal, and percent of the overall design for each color.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quilt-block-areas
What’s Half of a Half of a Half?
Students will use a physical model to determine what happens when they repeatedly halve a piece of paper, and then they reassemble the pieces into a whole. They then use an algebraic model to analyze the same situation, which leads to an introductory discussion of limits.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-half-of-a-half-of-a-half
Find the Square Root...
Students who understand the basic concept of square roots learn how to evaluate expressions and equations that have rational and irrational solutions. Students also explore solutions to equations and investigate the differences between exact and approximate solutions using the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/find-the-square-root
Raise Your Cup
Students investigate inequalities applied to to volume and perimeter.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/raise-your-cup_1
Taxes & Tips
In this activity, students will increase their understanding of the use of the formula T = r × p, which is encountered both in the real world and in the typical Algebra 1 class. They will calculate the amount of taxes and tips exactly, and then use estimation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/taxes--tips
