Ck 12: Geometry: Types of Transformations Study Guide
[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Transformations move and modify geometric shapes. There are several types of transformations that all transform figures in different ways. These transformations can...
Oswego City School District
Regents Exam Prep Center: General "Transformation" Vocabulary
This site offers a short discussion of transformations. The discussion has few pictures and expresses the transformations in terms of relative coordinates rather than pictures.

Alex: Determine the Vertices of Transformed Images
This hands-on lesson uses exploration and discovery to help young scholars determine the coordinates of the vertices of various figures when translated, rotated, or reflected in a coordinate plane. The exploration phase will access...
CPALMS
Cpalms: Why Are Circles Similar?
[Free Registration/Login Required] A comprehensive lesson plan for teaching how to prove that all circles are similar by using three types of transformations.
Alabama Learning Exchange
Alex: Geometry City
This lesson plan reviews transformations in the coordinate plane while mimicking real-world planning skills. It gives an assessment and ideas for remediation, extention as well as ways to manage behavior problems and reluctant learners.
