Got the sum of remote interior angles equal to the measure of the exterior angle? with Cabri Jr.
Draw a triangle with exterior angle. Measure the exterior angle and each remote interior angle. Use the Alpha hand to check that the sum of the remote interior angles is always equal to the exterior angle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/got-the-sum-of-remote-interior-angles-equal-to-the-measure-of-the-exterior-angle---with-cabri-jr
The Letter Product Game
This activity will encourage students' powers of deduction through a word game. This will allow a review of factoring integers.

The Golden Ratio
The students will engage in a hands on activity to determine how they fit into the golden ratio which is considered the mathematically perfect ratio. Is it necessary or important to relate to this number?https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-golden-ratio
Investigating the Angle-Sum Theorem of Polygons
This activity will allow students to use Cabri Jr. to find the sum of the measures of interior angles of convex polygons and visually see how the Interior Angle Sum Theorem works.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/investigating-the-anglesum-theorem-of-polygons
Constructing Quadrilaterals
In this activity, students will construct different types of quadrilaterals from the quadrilateral hierarchy. This activity asks for constructions based on a minimal definition of the quadrilateral. The activity will reinforce the difference between a construction and a drawing.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-quadrilaterals
Constructing the Diameter of a Circle
Given a circle, students will construct a diameter of the circle. They will use the following theorem: In the same circle, if one chord is a perpendicular bisector of another chord, then the first chord is a diameter.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-the-diameter-of-a-circle
