Trisecting a Square
Students will determine several ways to trisect a square. They will use Cabri Jr. to verify the square has been trisected and then prove their trisection using postulates and theorems from geometry.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trisecting-a-square
Using Cabri Geometry to Create Fractals
With Cabri™ Geometry Jr. you never need to leave your classroom! The use of fractals can help understand the concepts of fractals and prepare for the HSPA. There are 2 separate activities to do in the classroom with the answers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/using-cabri-geometry-to-create-fractals
Permutations and Combinations
This is a quick Navigator lesson that I have used for a homework check at the beginning of class.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/permutations-and-combinations
Angle Sum in Triangles Proof using Rotation and a Parallel Line
This investigation uses Cabri Jr. and a cleaver rotation of a triangle to "prove" that the angles in a triangle add up to 180. This could be used to reinforce triangles and paralled lines as well as introduce the concept of rotating an object.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/angle-sum-in-triangles-proof-using-rotation-and-a-parallel-line
Sum of Interior Angles in a Triangle with Cabri Jr.
Students will discover the sum of the interior angles in a triangle using the Cabri Jr.™ Application.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sum-of-interior-angles-in-a-triangle-with-cabri-jr
Triangle Congruence with Activity Center
When the activity is started in Navigator, students receive a diagram on their calculators with 6 regions representing the possible answers to a triangle congruence problem. The teacher displays a pair of triangles on the overhead projector or whiteboard and students move their cursor to the regi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-congruence-with-activity-center
Right Triangle Trig
This is a way to use the TI-Navigator™ to check for an understanding of sin, cos, and tan before you move onto word problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/right-triangle-trig
Triangle Inequalities
This activity will help students visualize the properties of triangles stated in the theorems. By dragging the vertices, the students can see that the properties hold regardless of the size of the triangles and which sides are the longest or shortest.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-inequalities_2
Triangle Inequality
In this activity the students will use Cabri Jr. to investigate the Triangle Inequality Theorm and make conjectures about their findings.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-inequality
Evaluating the Products of Chords of a Circle
In this activity, the students will investigate if two chords intersect in a circle, then the products of the measures of the segments of the chords are equal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/evaluating-the-products-of-chords-of-a-circle
Special Midpoint Quadrilaterals
Midpoint Quadrilaterals are quadrilaterals that are formed when consecutive midpoints of a quadrilateral are connected. This activity will use Cabri® Jr. to investigate what properties an exterior quadrilateral has if its midpoint quarilateral has some special properties of its own.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/special-midpoint-quadrilaterals
Scrabble Math
Use the U.S. Constitution, Scrabble, and your graphing calculator to examine a number of statistical concepts with your Algebra 1 students.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scrabble-math
Run me a Linear Regression
This activity is designed to give students the opportunity to estimate the least squares line given a set of points. The students are then able to check their "best fit" line by running a linear regression using the graphing calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/run-me-a-linear-regression
Run Me a Hypothesis Test
This activity is designed to give students' practice in determining which type of test to run given certain background information.
