Circles - Angles and Arcs

In this TI-84 family activity, students explore angles constructed in a circle and how their measures are related to the measures of the intercepted arcs.

Circle Product Theorems

Students will use dynamic models to find patterns. These patterns are the Chord-Chord, Secant-Secant, and Secant-Tangent Theorems.

The Pythagorean Theorem

Students will construct figures that prove the Pythagorean Theorem in two different ways.

Surface Area of a Cylinder

Students define right and oblique three dimensional figures and calculate the volume for prisms, pyramids, cylinders, and cones.

Tessellations

Students will explore tessellations of triangles and quadrilaterals. They will use the transformation tools of symmetry, reflections, rotations, and/or translations.

Measuring Angles

This activity will introduce and/or reinforce estimating the measurements of angles.

Transformations With Lists

Students use list operations to perform reflections, rotations, translations and dilations on a figure, and graph the resulting image using a scatter plot.

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...

Hide and Seek on the Coordinate Plane

The activity is designed as an introduction to the activity center on TI-Navigator™. Prior to the activity students should have covered graphing points on the coordinate plane, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing integers, as well as absolute value and comparing and ordering integers.

Exploring Cavalieri's Principle

Students explore Cavalieri's Principle for cross sectional area and volume.

Inference for Two-way Tables

Students use the chi-square test to analyze whether two categorical variables are independent or dependent calculating expected frequencies, the test statistic and the critical values.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inference-for-twoway-tables

Independence is the Word

Students use a simulation to find the experimental probability of independent events.

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

Hypothesis Testing: Means

Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size at the five-percent significance level. The test statistic is found and compared to the critical value.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hypothesis-testing-means

Shortest Distance Problem

This is a great follow-up to the Introduction to Properties in Reflections. Students may have trouble producing a scaled drawing. Using a scale of 1 to 5 works well. See the figure below for a possible scaled construction.

Makin' It Through The Winter

Students simulate a binomial distribution and calculate probabilities for a variety of situations involving binomial probability distributions.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/makin-it-through-the-winter

One- and Two-Variable Statistics--Review

Students review one-variable topics such as graphing quantitative variables, calculating measures of central tendency and spread, and making comparisons.

On Your Mark, Get Set, React

This session will demonstrate a novel approach to reaction time experiments done in junior science and mathematics courses. Participants will use a Calculator-Based Ranger (CBR™) and a TI-83+ to record their reaction times. A statistical extension will be presented for use in mathematics classes....

Law of Large Numbers: A Weighty Decision

In this activity, students will explore the Law of Large Numbers. By examining unfair models, they will expand their understanding of probability. They predict the weighting of an unfair model by analyzing experimental data and distributions. They will also formulate and test a hypothesis on the ...

Percentiles - IB

The goal of this activity is for students to use the area to the left of a value in a normal distribution to find its percentile. The process will then be reversed to find the value for a given percentile. In doing so, students will learn how to use the Normal CDF and Inverse Normal commands on t...

It's a Two-Way Street

Students will be introduced to two-way tables by calculating marginal and conditional distributions using formulas in a spreadsheet.

Perpendicular Bisector Theorem

This activity uses distance measures to investigate the relationship between a point in the plane and the distance to the endpoints of a segment. Students will investigate the implication these relationships have for the position of the point in the plane.
