Properties of Special Quadrilaterals Exploration
Students are given a TI-Nspire file with special quadrilaterals so that they can use the dynamic measurement capabilities of the TI-Nspire to explore which properties always hold true for each quadrilateral.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-special-quadrilaterals-exploration
Polygons & Angles: Looking for Patterns
This activity explores the relationships of various polygons and their angles. This is a discovery lesson and leads students through data and asks them to make conjectures about the angles of a triangle, quadrilateral, and pentagon. This lesson explores interior angles, exterior angles, and as...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polygons--angles--looking-for-patterns
Angles in Polygons
This is a self-contained activity that is designed to incorporate the TI-Nspire Navigator system which provides for a paperless activity that can be easily managed during and after the class period. Students will investigate the relationships of the interior and exterior angles in a polygon. T...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/angles-in-polygons
A Sprinkler System Activity for the TI-Nspire TouchPad
This lesson involves the student in constructing and then creating their own designs using circles to indicate water spray from sprinklers set to full, half, and quarter circle patterns. The students learn to appreciate the ART of Math in the designs created with the Nspire TouchPad. The students...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/a-sprinkler-system-activity-for-the-tinspire-touchpad
Addition of Parts
This activity is a self-contained discussion of the topic of segment and angle addition and allows the teacher to focus on the flow of the class rather than explanation. Students will be able to work through this activity easily and reach usable conclusions on their own. Also, examples are prov...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/addition-of-parts
Making Hay While the Sun Shines & Not Losing It in the Rain (The Geometry of the Big Round Bale)
This activity explores the volume of the hay bale and the percent of loss as the radius of the bale decreases. The extension collects data from the constructed cylinder in a spreadsheet and graphs it. The graphs are modeled with quadratic functions and transformations of quadratic functions can...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-hay-while-the-sun-shines--not-losing-it-in-the-rain--the-geometry-of-the-big-round-bale
