This task uses GeoGebra software, which can be freely downloaded, to explore what happens to the line segments and angles of a triangle when it is reflected, rotated, and translated. Includes printable task sheet for students and a...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Identify and describe transformations in the coordinate plane.

Investigate tessellations using this interactive Learn Alberta math resource. Students will explore transformations, namely line symmetry, rotation symmetry, and translation occurring within a tessellated pattern. Be sure to follow the...

This lesson focuses on rigid transformations, a specific set of rules that convert one geometric figure into another one. There are many different types of transformations, like reflections or rotations. It provides several practice...

Worksheets provide practice with finding the area or circumference of a circle and answer keys are provided. You can even create your own worksheet or flashcards.

Accompanied by links to online activities and demonstrations, students learn about the different types of transformations on a coordinate grid through this lesson plan. The lesson is designed to match the Grade 7 Ontario curriculum, with...

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.

Students show comprehension of advanced mathematics skills in Geometry. The questions check understanding on transformational geometry. Topics include translations, symmetry, and rotations.

Shodor Education Foundation provides an applet that "allows the user to explore the world of transformations, reflections, and rotations. It allows the user to translate triangles, squares, and parallelograms on both the x and y-axes."

Provides an explanation, examples, and a video lesson all related to the four common types of transformation. [1:00]

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this lesson students explore composite transformations. Students examine guided notes, review guided practice, watch instructional videos and attempt practice...

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart was designed to introduce fourth grade students to transformations in geometry. It includes translations, reflections, and rotations.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan explores tessellations and their geometric properties. Plenty of interactive support is available for students. Lots of resources for teachers to use.

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.

Use the activity center in TI-Navigator to discover a generalization for translating ordered pairs in a coordinate plane.

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...

Accuracy of measurement in navigation depends very much on the situation. If a sailor's target is an island 200 km wide, sailing off center by 10 or 20 km is not a major problem. But, if the island were only 1 km wide, it would be missed...

This presentation provides a tutorial on symmetry. In the tutorial, you will do the following: learn about geometric symmetry, explore line or reflection symmetry, explore rotation symmetry, and explore translation symmetry and frieze...

This site from The Math Forum provides great information on polar coordinates. You can access this information either by clicking on the coordinates link or just scrolling down, it is the first one listed on the page. Includes several...

Definition of congruent. Choose the "here's more" link to see examples of a rotation, reflection and translation.

This study guide on the composition of transformations covers some vocabulary terms and different types of these compositions. It is available for download with free registration.

Students use the Geoboard App to measure arcs, line segments, area, and perimeter, as well as rotate, reflect, and translate objects.

A rigid motion of the plane is a map of the plane to itself which preserves distances between points. The purpose of this task is to use fixed points as a tool for studying and classifying rigid motions of the plane, i.e., translations,...

Find a clear explanation of similar figures. Discusses how they can be transformed through a sequence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations. Explanations are supported with illustrated examples.
