Flips, Turns, and Slides: Adventures with Transformations
Students explore transformations. In this math lesson, students plot points on a coordinate grid and construct shapes. Students discuss movements on the grid as flips, turns and slides.
Curated OER
Slides, Flips, and Turns
In this transformation worksheet, 5th graders determine if a pair of figures are related by a slide, flip, or turn. The worksheet reviews rotation, reflection, and translation.
Mathematics Vision Project
Transformations and Symmetry
Flip, turn, and slide about the coordinate plane. Pupils define the rigid motions and experiment with them before determining the relationships of the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. The sixth unit in a nine-part series...
Curated OER
Flips, Sides and Turns: Exploring Transformations
Young scholars use an online dictionaries to define key geometric terms. They explore several websites to help them differentiate the terms reflections, translations and rotations as they apply to geometry and then complete an assessment...
Curated OER
Point Comparisons
Young geometers investigate two-dimensional figures using coordinate grids. They identify polygons and draw examples of their reflection, rotation, and translation on a coordinate grid. And they complete a worksheet practicing examples...
Curated OER
Tessellmaniacs
Seventh graders create 3 original tessellation using polygons. They slide, turn, rotate and glide their designs on the computer. They print their tessellation on a T-shirt and teach the 6th graders about tessellations.
Curated OER
Shape Up: Playing with Shapes
Encourage your scholars to play with math using this shapes partner game, where players toss a number cube (possibly a die) to determine which geometric shape to draw. The students toss the cube a second time to determine whether they...
Curated OER
Fun With Transformations
Demonstrate and discuss the three types of transformations: rotation, reflection, and translation. Participate in a game which helps to reinforce and practice what they learned. Groups work collaboratively to complete the game.

Circles: A Geometric Perspective
Circles are the foundation of many geometric concepts and extensions - a point that is thoroughly driven home in this extensive unit. Fundamental properties of circles are investigated (including sector area, angle measure, and...
Curated OER
Slides, Flips and Turns
Third graders are introduced to the meanings of the concepts slides, turns, and flips in how they relate to Geometry. As a class, they use their bodies to demonstrate how each term should look like. To end the activity, they apply the...
Curated OER
Transforming Triangles
Sixth graders graph translations (slides) and reflections (flips) on a coordinate plane. They visualize and identify geometric shapes after applying transformations on a coordinate plane. Finally, 6th graders write a paragraph telling...
Curated OER
Geometry: Tessellations
Students create tessellations with computer software while applying their knowledge of reflections, rotations, and translations.

Transformations
How does something go from here to there? Describe it with a transformation. Young mathematicians learn how to translate, reflect, rotate, and dilate an image.
PBS
Using Symmetry to Create Corporate Logos
Young mathematicians investigate the use of symmetry in graphic design. After first learning about reflection, translational, and rotational symmetry, children use this new knowledge to identify symmetry in letters of the...
Curated OER
Transformations-Shapes on the Move
Students examine transformations. In this math lesson, students view and describe flips, slides, and turns. Students practice making transformations with shapes.
Curated OER
Translating Transformations in Geometry
Learners create an image using given coordinates and evaluate how the coordinates change when a slide or rotation takes place.
Curated OER
Transformations in the Coordinate Plane: Reteach
For this transformations worksheet, students review the terms and example diagrams for a translation, reflection, and rotation. Students then identify the coordinates for a triangle after completing the given transformations in the four...
Curated OER
Slides, Flips and Turns
Third graders slide, turn, and flip their bodies to explain sliding, turning, and flipping geometric shapes.
Curated OER
Transforming Congruent Figures: Post Test
In this transformations worksheet, learners complete multiple choice questions about the transformations of congruent figures. They complete 10 problems.
Curated OER
Slides, Flips and Turns
Third graders are introduced to different types of transformations. As a class, they describe how a stuffed animal slides across the floor and use themselves to demonstrate as well. Individually, they flip and turn in different...
Curated OER
Geometric Collages
Fourth graders investigate the concept of geometric patterning. They create their own patterns with a few basic requirements. The patterns must illustrate the concepts of flipping, 90 and 180 degree rotations. The collages also consist...
Curated OER
ABC's Transformer
Fourth graders design their own letter graph, and then produce the resulting graphs after a translation, reflection, and rotation. After a review of vocabulary, 4th graders create their graphs using crayons.
