Tiles in a Bag

How many tiles would you have to pick to be confident that your estimated probability truly represents the situation? In this activity, you will draw a tile from a bag, record its color and put it back in the bag. The bag contains 24 tiles some blue and some green. A green tile is considered a s...

Rotations in the Coordinate Plane

It is important for students to know what happens to the coordinates of points when they are rotated in the coordinate plane by 90 or 180 degrees, either clockwise or counterclockwise. This activity enables students to use Cabri Jr. to develop this understanding.

Pythagorean Proofs

In this activity, students will explore proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem. Students will explore the proof of the Pythagorean Theorem using area of squares, area of triangles and trapezoids, and by dissection. Students will then be asked to apply what they have learned about the Pythagorean Theorem.

Transforming Fish

In this activity, students will discover how pictures formed by graphing ordered pairs can be stretched (and shrunk) by multiplying (and dividing) the coordinates.

Trigonometric Ratios

Students discover the trigonometric ratios through measuring the side lengths of similar triangles and calculating their ratios. The formal definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent or an angle are presented and applied to find the missing side lengths.

Creating Boxes

Students graph the relationship between the length of the sides of the cut-out squares and the volume of the resulting box. They trace the graph to decide the best square-size which can result in a box of maximum volume.

Zooooooom!

This activity uses times collected for a radio control car traveling certain distances to create a regression line to analyze and discuss as a class. If the car(s) cannot be obtained, you can use students to run the distances.

Building a Garden Fence

In this activity, students will use basic concepts of perimeter and area to investigate a classic problem situation requiring maximization. They must decide how to build a garden fence to enclose the largest possible area.

Compound Interest: Show Me the Money

This is an activity at the conclusion of the exponential relationship unit where students have experience with equations in the form y=a*b^x. Students use the random integer function on the TI-83 Plus to generate a rate of return for the investment profile they choose.

Cell Phone Range

Students will learn to identify the domain and range of various real-world step functions. They will graphically explore numerical data points and observe step functions.

The Impossible Task

Students are given a manufacturing situation and asked to write and graph an inequalities to represent it and find the solutions.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-impossible-task

Testing for Truth

Students identify whether points lie within a shaded region that is bounded by linear inequalities.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/testing-for-truth

Probability

Activity will prompt user for the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of a starting point that lives in QuadranI. In other words, one must enter a value, for each, between 0 and 1, say 0.2 for x and 0.5 for y.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/probability

Data Collection for Bar Graphs

Students collect data outside of the classroom, organize their information into a bar graph within their groups, and then contribute their data to Navigator in the form of 2 lists to view and discuss as a class
