What Is My Rule?

This activity encourages students to gain experience with the language of the Cartesian coordinate system. Each of the problems shows two points, z and w. Point z can be dragged, and point w moves in response. In describing the rule that governs the location of point w, students will most likely ...

Points on a Line

The Points on a Line activity is intended to develop student understanding of slope of a line. This activity is based on the concept of vertical change and horizontal change when moving between two points on a line. Students will perform an action on the TNS file and observe the consequences of ...

Application of Slopes

Students will apply the concept of slope to a real-world problem about building a staircase. They will use the slope ratio, vertical change over horizontal change, to find the slope of staircase. Then, students will recognize how a positive or negative slope applies in a real-world situation.

The Open Box: An Exploration of Maximum Volume

The students will solve the problem of finding the maximum volume of a box cut from an 18 x 24 cm peice of paper in several ways. The student will actually cut out and form several different boxes. The student will fill the boxes with "starburst" candies and then use their TI-Nspires to analyze...

Midpoint Quadrilateral

This problem presents an opportunity for students to think about properties of quadrilaterals, and also to work on confirming observations through geometric reasoning. If your state has adopted the Common Core State Standards, this alignment might be helpful: Geometry: Prove Geometric Theorems G....
