Reflections over the Axes
It is important for students to know what happens to the coordinates of points when they are reflected over the x-axis or the y-axis. This activity enables students to use Cabri Jr. to develop this understanding.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reflections-over-the-axes
Solving Problems Using Trigonometry
Solving real life problem using trig ratios. Example: Finding the angle of elevation or the angle of depression. Finding the angle between two lines. Finding equation of a line that passes through two points.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solving-problems-using-trigonometry
Estimating a Population Proportion
Students find the confidence interval for a population proportion by first finding the critical value and the margin of error.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/estimating-a-population-proportion
Percentiles & Z-Scores
Students calculate percentiles, z-scores, and probabilities using normal distributions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/percentiles--zscores
Normal Distribution
... following steps to see how many questions you can answer correctly without seeing the questions. Step 1 Flip a coin for each question. Let heads represent "true" and tails represent "false". Record your answers. How many of your answers do you think will be correct? What is the probability o...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/normal-distribution

SSS Triangle Congruence
Students will: 1. Construct a triangle and measure its sides and angles. 2. Construct a second triangle with corresponding sides equal in length. 3. Try to alter the properties of their construction by moving the vertices.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sss-triangle-congruence
Tiles in a Bag
How many tiles would you have to pick to be confident that your estimated probability truly represents the situation? In this activity, you will draw a tile from a bag, record its color and put it back in the bag. The bag contains 24 tiles some blue and some green. A green tile is considered a s...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tiles-in-a-bag
Roll the Dice
Students compute sample spaces for coin flips, find the various probabilities associated, and graph the probabilities using the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/roll-the-dice
Stretching Slinkies
This lesson provides students with the opportunity to explore the TI-84 graphing calculator in conjunction with Microsoft Excel®. Students will use the "Stretching Slinkies" worksheet to record and enter data. They will either: enter data into Microsoft Excel to synch with the TI-84, OR, enter da...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stretching-slinkies
Best Class
Students will create and explore a box plot and histogram for a data set. They then compare the two data displays by viewing them together and use the comparison to draw conclusions about the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/best-class
Rotations in the Coordinate Plane
It is important for students to know what happens to the coordinates of points when they are rotated in the coordinate plane by 90 or 180 degrees, either clockwise or counterclockwise. This activity enables students to use Cabri Jr. to develop this understanding.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/rotations-in-the-coordinate-plane
