Lesson Plan

Reflections

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Facilitate creativity in your math class as individuals learn the definition of a geometric reflection and correctly construct a model, as well as its reflected image. They use a perpendicular bisector and circles to elaborate on congruence and predict the outcome if their product was constructed differently.

Instructional Ideas
  • Divide the class into groups and assign each with an architectural image; instruct the group to list relevant geometric structures present
  • View video segments of artwork containing geometric patterns discussed in class and provide time for a Q&A session
Classroom Considerations
  • Make certain each person has the needed materials to construct models included in the lesson
  • Lesson 14 in a 36-part unit
Pros
  • Builds on knowledge of a previous lesson in the series and encourages the class to predict outcome of current models constructed
  • Detailed examples allow differentiated learning or group learning if modifications are needed
Cons
  • None
