Students investigate linear programming using the TI. In this algebra lesson, students collaborate and graph linear inequalities on a TI. They analyze their data and present it to the class.

High schoolers explore circles using a graphing calculator. For this circles lesson, students write the equation of a circle with a given center and radius length. High schoolers find the most appropriate model for each combination of...

A page right out of the Holt Geometry book. Use a graphing calculator and graph paper to explore transformations with matrices.  

Pupils will investigate trigonometric equations. In this trigonometry lesson, they explore solving equations using a TI-83 calculator and solve trigonometric equations by graphing each side of the equation as a function and locating the...

Students solve and graph linear equations. In this algebra lesson, students collect and plot data on a coordinate plane. They use the CBL and TI calculator to graph systems of equation.

Solving systems of equations underpins much of advanced algebra, especially linear algebra. Developing an intuition for the kinds and descriptions of solutions is key for success in those later courses. This intuition is exactly what...

Bobo the Boxer needs a pen and algebra learners need to find the maximum area that can be created from a fixed amount of fence.  A graphing calculator is used to assist in their exploration. 

Practice consumer mathematics through by investigating home mortgages. Budding economists find the interest rates for 30-year and 15-year loans and calculate the estimated monthly payments. They use their data to compare periods of time...

Middle schoolers speculate on the better rate of pay: a dollar a day for 10 days, or a penny the first day, two pennies the second, doubling each day for 10 days. Start by listening to the story The King's Chessboard, by David Birch....

Learners explore the concept of ordered pairs. For this ordered pairs lesson, pupils list the ordered pairs of a graph in the shape of a fish. They use their calculator to translate the fish using lists, then translate the fish left,...

Learners explore linear, quadratic, and exponential functions in this activity that makes use of TI Navigator and TI Plus calculators. Using the technology, learners compare and contrast the three types of functions given in...

Your class can become linear equations masters, as they calculate the rate of change of a function. They observe different types of coordinates as they relate to a graph, then use the Ti-navigator to move the line around and draw...

It's time to investigate patterns! First and second graders construct a paper weaving using a hundreds chart, then use the Ti-10 calculator to make patterns such as adding 3 each time. Learners remove multiples of three from the hundreds...
