Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students will be sent ordered pairs through lists using the TI-Navigator™. These pairs will then be graphed as a line graph and students will classify the shape of the quadrilateral and justify their choice.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-quadrilaterals
Scientific Notation
This StudyCards™ set demonstrates need for scientific notation, using real-world examples. Includes guided activity promoting proper form. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, ch. 1-4.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scientific-notation
Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students receive two Cabri Jr. files of quadrilaterals on a coordinate plane. They use their knowledge of quadrilaterals to give each one the most precise name. They may find the length and/or slope of the sides using the measuring tools of Cabri Jr. to assist in their classification.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-quadrilaterals_1
Watching Your Weight - TI-83
