The Amazing Race: Algebra Edition
This is a full lesson, and the guided practice section utilizes the Navigator system. The independent practice is the game The Amazing Race (explained in the PDF).https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-amazing-race--algebra-edition
Midsegments of Triangles
Students explore the properties of the midsegment, a segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/midsegments-of-triangles
Midpoints in the Coordinate Plane
Beginning with horizontal or vertical segments, students show the coordinates of the endpoints and make a conjecture about the coordinates of the midpoint.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/midpoints-in-the-coordinate-plane_1
Distances in the Coordinate Plane
Students will explore distances in the coordinate plane. After finding the coordinates of a segment’s endpoints, students will substitute these values into the distance formula and compare the results to the measured length of the segment. Then students will find the distance between the endpoint...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/distances-in-the-coordinate-plane_1

Students explore Cavalieri's Principle for cross sectional area and volume.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-cavalieris-principle
Triangle Sides & Angles
Students will explore side and angle relationships in a triangle. First, students will discover where the longest (and shortest) side is located relative to the largest (and smallest) angle. Then, students will explore the Isosceles Triangle Theorem and its converse. Finally, students will determ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-sides--angles_1

Students use a simulation to find the experimental probability of independent events.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/independence-is-the-word_1
Shortest Distance Between Points and Lines
This activity investigates concepts such as the shortest distance between two points in a plane, and the shortest distance between a line and a point not on the line. The analytical explanation of these concepts is supported with visual illustrations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shortest-distance-between-points-and-lines
