Intro to Circles Terminology
Four questions to introduce the TI-Navigator™ and to assess student understanding of basic terms about circles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/intro-to-circles-terminology
Polynomial Addition, Subtraction
This StudyCards™ stack teaches that, when linear functions are added, the slope of the sum is equal to the sum of the slopes, likewise for y-intercepts. Includes quadratic and up polynomials. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, Ch. 3.2.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polynomial-addition-subtraction
Polynomial Multiplication
This StudyCards™ set shows that the product of linear functions (polynomial) is usually quadratic. Students discover the exact product and more traditional methods for multiplying polynomials. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, Ch. 3.3.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polynomial-multiplication
NUMB3RS - Season 2 -"Hot Shot" - A Stab in the Dark
In "Hot Shot," two victims of a possible serial criminal are found. Charlie uses kernel density estimation as a method for predicting a change in behavior to indicate a connection between the victims and the criminal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2-hot-shot--a-stab-in-the-dark
Classifying A Triangles by Their Angle Measure using Cabri Jr.
This activity uses Cabri Jr.™ to classify triangles according to their angle measure.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-a-triangles-by-their-angle-measure-using-cabri-jr
Slope and Learning Check Docs
The is a collection of various LearningCheck Documents for use with Slope and Equation of a Linear Function for algebra.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/slope-and-learning-check-docs
Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students will be sent ordered pairs through lists using the TI-Navigator™. These pairs will then be graphed as a line graph and students will classify the shape of the quadrilateral and justify their choice.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-quadrilaterals
Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students receive two Cabri Jr. files of quadrilaterals on a coordinate plane. They use their knowledge of quadrilaterals to give each one the most precise name. They may find the length and/or slope of the sides using the measuring tools of Cabri Jr. to assist in their classification.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-quadrilaterals_1
