Transforming "F" on the coordinate plane

Students move their cursor in activity center to occupy a unique point on a background letter "F" in quadrant 1. Students then together follow a rule for going to a different point (such as "use the opposite of the original x coordinate") and sketch the resulting transformation on their worksheet...

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.

Survey Project

Students survey other students (numerical and non numerical data) and calculate measures of central tendency (if possible) of data and make regular box-an-whisker plots and outlier box-and-whisker plots to analyze the data.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/survey-project

Describing One-Variable Data

Students sort data and display it graphically using various plots. They also get familiarized with statistical concepts like measures of spread and central tendency.

Dilations in the Plane

A dilation is a transformation that produces a figure with a different size from that of the original figure. In this activity, you will explore the properties of dilations and the relationships between the original and image figures.

Using Vases to Help Understand What Graphs Mean

Students will predict what the graph will look like for different vases as they are filled with water. Then students will use the vases of different shapes and fill them with a set amount of water before each measurement. Students then measure the height of the water in the vase (their y-interc...

Give Me a Hand or Leaf Me Alone - TI-83

In this activity, students find the surface area of geometric shapes cut from card paper and relate it to its mass. They use this data to find the surface area of irregularly shaped objects.

Exploring Platonic Solids

This activity is best at the very beginning of a unit on solids. Students will observe Platonic solids using an interactive website (from the NLVM) projected to the whole class. Students will predict the number of edges, vertices, and faces of the five solids and record their predictions on a Lea...
