Making Triangles
In this activity, students will investigate properties of triangles, classify the various types of triangles, and determine if specific side lengths will make a triangle or not.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-triangles
Geometry: Parallel and Perpendicular Slopes
This activity will help students understand the relationship between the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/geometry--parallel-and-perpendicular-slopes
Geometry: Translations and Reflections
Students will be in groups and plot given points. From the given points the students will plot the appropriate reflection or translation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/geometry--translations-and-reflections
The Letter Product Game
This activity will encourage students' powers of deduction through a word game. This will allow a review of factoring integers. A simple extension allows a classroom discussion that will evolve into the Zero Product Theorem, essential to the technique of solving polynomial equations by factoring.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-letter-product-game
Area of Circles Review
Review Area with PowerPoint™ then use LearningCheck™ as an assessment.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/area-of-circles-review
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
Watching Your Weight - TI-83
In this activity, students examine how moving a weight up along a board affects the downward force on the board. They explore how children with different weights can be balanced on a seesaw.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/watching-your-weight--ti83
Measuring Angles of a Triangle
In this activity, we will draw a triangle, label the vertices, measure the interior angles, find the sum of the angles and then change the angles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/measuring-angles-of-a-triangle
Saving for Graduation
In this activity, students use the CellSheet™ Application to calculate accrued interest on a principal. During the activity students solve a problem to calculate the interest on a principal, for a specified period.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/saving-for-graduation
More difficult factoring
To check sign placement for factoring of trinomials when the coefficient in front of the x square is greater than one and the signs are different.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/more-difficult-factoring
Matrix Addition, Subtraction, and Scalar Multiplication
Students take quiz from Word .doc and answer the questions in the LearningCheck&trade .edc file.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/matrix-addition-subtraction-and-scalar-multiplication
