[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Provides a brief overview of the different types of symmetry and of how to tessellate a shape.

Students learn about symmetry. Topics explored are reflection, rotational, and point symmetry. Examples and definitions are included.

The learning activity explores symmetry. Students combine mathematics and art as they investigate reflection and rotation symmetry.

This Math Forum site gives visual examples of rotation, translation, reflection, and glide reflection with background information about each. Also gives problems to work on concerning symmetry.

Provides real world examples of symmetry in architecture, including pictures of each kind of symmetry, examples, acknowledgements, and a bibliography.

Given geometric figures on the coordinate plane, the student will apply the definition of congruence, in terms of rigid transformations, to identify congruent figures. The student will also identify and distinguish between reflectional...

This University of Regina site gives some history and definitions about translations and symmetry.

This is a site from the Math Forum that gives visual examples to show the differences between the four different kinds of symmetry. Examples are given along with links to additional information.

There is exactly one reflection and no rotation that sends the convex quadrilateral ABCD onto itself. What shape(s) could quadrilateral ABCD be? Explain. Aligns with G-CO.A.3.

This lesson plan deals with tessellations and their geometric concepts. Upper elementary and middle school students will also explore polygons, symmetry, analyze patterns and explore the role of mathematics in nature and culture.

This multimedia Learn Alberta math resource looks at real world examples of transformations found throughout West Edmonton Mall. The accompanying interactive component asks students to predict transformations through looking at...

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson has students examine a set of transformations to determine if certain properties (such as associativity and closure) exist for equilateral triangles. Students create tables of...

Sharpen your logic, symmetry, and pattern recognition skills while working on this challenge. Solution included.

A definition and examples of point symmetry, as well as links to information on rotational symmetry, reflection symmetry, transformations, and rotation.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan introduces a variety of motion geometry concepts such as translations, reflections, and rotations. Lots of interactive support for students.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan examines the mathematical nature of art, tilings and tessellations. Students will also explore polygons, symmetry, analyze patterns and explore the role of mathematics in nature and our...

In this task, seven pennies are placed in a circle so that they are all touching one in the center and their neighbors. Learners are asked to find as many rigid motions of the plane as they can which are symmetries of this configuration...

This site presents information on the three basic transformations of figures in a plane: Reflections, Rotations, and Translations.

Follow the directions at this one page website. You will get lots of practice plotting points on the coordinate grid and experience with transformational geometry.
