Quick polls are used to questions student confidence i...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/interpreting-confidence-intervals
Explore Transformations with Matrices
Students will use a graphing calculator to explore transformations with matrices. They will analyze how each element of the matrix affects the position of the image. This Technology Lab accompanies Lesson 12-3 from the ©2007 Holt, Rinehart and Winston Geometry textbook.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/explore-transformations-with-matrices
Equations of Circles
In this activity, students will explore the relationship among the location of the center of the circle, the radius of a circle, and the equation of a circle in a plane. They will also investigate the relationship between the points inside, on, and outside a circle, and the equation of the circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/equations-of-circles_1
Isosceles Triangle
In this activity, students construct isosceles and equilateral triangles. They discover that if two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite them are congruent. They understand that an equilateral triangle is also equiangular.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/isosceles-triangle
Real Number Properties
This StudyCards™ set promotes understanding of commutative properties, associative properties and the distributive property. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, ch. 1-1.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/real-number-properties
Dilations in the Plane
A dilation is a transformation that produces a figure with a different size from that of the original figure. In this activity, you will explore the properties of dilations and the relationships between the original and image figures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dilations-in-the-plane
Measures of Central Tendency Activity: Height of the Class
The purpose of this lesson is to have students create a box and whiskers plot from collecting class data of each person's height.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/measures-of-central-tendency-activity-height-of-the-class
