Curated OER
Factoring Trinomials
Students factor trinomials. In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the different integers making up the trinomial and use the special pattern to factor them. They continue to model the equations and how to factor...
Curated OER
Comparing Linear and Exponential Functions
Teach your class how to differentiate between linear and exponential functions. They use exponential properties to solve problems, graph them using the TI-Navigator, and make comparisons.
Curated OER
Spreading Doom
Students explore the pattern created by a sequence or series. In this geometry lesson, students relate the spread of a virus to the growth of exponential functions. They collect data as they analyze the sequence created by the growth.
Curated OER
Alternate Interior Angles
Label angles of parallel lines to analyze the angles created by a transversal and two parallel lines. They graph their lines and observe the similarity and difference in the angles.
Curated OER
Similar Figures
Your class will use a TI calculator to drag vertices of rectangles and triangles to observe what happens to ratios of pairs of sides within each figure. They will apply the definition of similarity to identify similar shapes. The lesson...
Curated OER
Angles and Similarity
Students identify triangles as similar or congruent. For this geometry lesson, students drag triangles around on the navigator to see the effect of different angles on the shape of the triangle. They discuss angle similarity and angle...
Curated OER
Area Measures and Right Triangles
Your class will investigate the relationship among different triangles. This geometry lesson, demonstrates how to make a connection between triangles and the Pythagorean Theorem. They identify the missing side or angle of a triangle.
Curated OER
Interior Angles of Regular Polygons
Students investigate the interior angles of a triangle. In this geometry lesson, students create the formula to calculate the angles inside a triangle. They observe the total sum of a triangles angle on the navigator.
