How Random!
Students use simulations and graphs to explore the common sense notion that repeatedly flipping a coin results in "heads up" about half of the time. First, they simulate an experiment by representing single coin flips with random numbers. Next, they use a given formula to simulate multiple coin f...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-random_1

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
The Pythagorean Theorem And Classifying Triangles
Students will use the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem to predict a triangle's classification. The Cabri Jr. App on the TI-83+/84+ family will be used to create triangles and find their measurements.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-pythagorean-theorem-and-classifying-triangles
Relationship of Angles to the Circle
In this activity, students recognize the relationship of angles to its circles. They study the Inscribed Angle Theorem and its corollaries.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/relationship-of-angles-to-the-circle
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
Ryan's Puppy Problem
This problem can be used in Geometry of Algebra. Ryan desires to build a rectangluar fence to keep his puppy in. What shape should he use if he has 8 meters of fencing?https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ryans-puppy-problem
The Tangent Ratio
In this activity students explore the tangent ratio. Students construct a right triangle using perpendicular lines, and a line that forms the hypotenuse of the triangle. When students construct the hypotenuse line it is very important that the second point that forms the line is not on the perpen...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-tangent-ratio
Reflections
This activity will let students understand the concept of reflection.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reflections
Equations of Circles
In this activity, students will explore the relationship among the location of the center of the circle, the radius of a circle, and the equation of a circle in a plane. They will also investigate the relationship between the points inside, on, and outside a circle, and the equation of the circle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/equations-of-circles_1
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 a Regular Polygon
This activity has the students derive the formula for finding the area of a regular polygon. Demonstrating the procedure of constructing a regular polygon in front of the class maybe necessary depending on the students prior experiencehttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/area-of-a-regular-polygon
Intro to Circles Terminology
Four questions to introduce the TI-Navigator™ and to assess student understanding of basic terms about circles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/intro-to-circles-terminology
Sequence Patterns
Sonya Kovalevsky(1850-1891)was fascinated by infinite sequences. Fill in the spaces to continue the sequences in the attached document.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sequence-patterns
Sequences
Students learn how to graph the first n terms of a sequence, how to set the window and how to evaluate the nth term of a sequence. They also explore the Fibonacci sequence and Web plots.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sequences
