In this lesson on transformations on coordinate planes, 8th graders explore dilation, translation, reflection, and rotation of shapes within a coordinate plane.

This hands-on lesson plan uses exploration and discovery to help students determine the coordinates of the vertices of various figures when translated, rotated, or reflected in a coordinate plane. The exploration phase will access...

Archeologists, when classifying artifacts, often take note of the physical properties or attributes of artifacts, such as the materials from which the artifacts are made, and their size, shape, function, and decoration. Friezes are often...

This is a site that discusses transformations and the processes.

[Free Registration/Login Required] In this flipchart, students use the interactive features in Activstudio to simulate translations and reflections using objects. Students develop and apply their understanding of geometric sense by...

Students practice with the parameters of the vertex form of the parabola and their effect on the shape of the curve. They use this concept to find a quadratic model. They also use translation and dilation to change the general parabola.

Photos of slides and genetics charts accompany the text and explain the differences between sickle cell train vs. sickle cell anemia, symptoms of sickle cell disease, secondary diseases/conditions associated with sickle cell, mechanism...

On this one page interactive website expand your logic, Motion Geometry and pattern recognition knowledge while working on this challenge. The solution is available to double check your solution.

An activity that explores how two cylinders that are identical in shape and mass may travel down a hill differently due to how their mass is distributed. Learn how the distribution of mass in an object can affect its translational...

This activity examines the legacy of the "philosopher statesman," James Madison. Madison combined the intellectual knowledge and creativity of the scholar with the practical savvy of the politician, a man of strong principles who also...
