A Move in the Right Direction
Students physically provide motion data that is collected by a CBL™ and then graph the data. They determine if they "moved in the right directions" by comparing their graph with those printed in the activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/a-move-in-the-right-direction
Got Complements? with Cabri Jr.
Use the Axes and Measure Angle tool to explore and calculate complementary angles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/got-complements--with-cabri-jr
Body Relationships
Students will measure different parts of their body (height, thumb, etc.) and will create graphs to see if there are relationships between the measurements. Teachers can use the TI-Navigator™ System to compile student data so that students have more data points to plot on their graphs to help wi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/body-relationships
Calculating the Area of a Triangle Using Heron's Formula
Students will measure the lengths of the sides of three different triangles and apply Heron's Formula to calculate the area in acres.
