In this activity, students will investigate the relationship among the three types of rigid transformations - translations, rotations, and reflections.

This site defines transformation and lists several different examples of transformations. Be sure to follow the links to related terms, everyday examples, challenging problems, more information, and the interactive check point involving...

Students will discover how to move a function up, down, to the right or left or reflect it.

The student will use the transformations - rotation, reflection, translation - to create common shapes from tangram pattern blocks

In this activity students explore transformations using the T.I. APP TRANSFRM. Based on the students conclusions, from a parent graph they will be able to plot points to shift or reflect the graph.

Practice using your graphing calculator for transformation problems. If you get stumped or if you would like to check your work, then select the View Solution button, which is located directly under each problem.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Function transformations combining shifts, reflections, stretches and compressions.

In this task, 8th graders are shown a picture of a triangle on a coordinate grid and are asked to draw and label reflections and explain a transformation. Aligns with 8.G.A.3.

Mangbetu art shows the use of all four geometric transforms: Reflection, Translation, Rotation, and Scaling. This website will provide you with some cultural background on the Mangbetu and their art. The software will allow you to...

This site provides everything you need to know about translating graphs. Plenty of examples and charts and very easy to understand.

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...

When you witness an injustice, remaining silent or acting as a bystander is an active choice that is an impediment to justice. In this lesson students will have the opportunity to examine the consequences of remaining silent specifically...

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

Explains how simple polygons translate into matrices and how to use 2x2 matrices to represent transformations in a plane. Includes video demonstrating an example where a vector must be rotated 90 degrees using matrices. [4:18]

[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...

By the end of the activity students will be able to identify a given function reflection, identify the way the graph will change and sketch a graph of the reflected function.

In this set of questions, students practice using an interactive tool to reflect images on a Cartesian grid. Includes hints.

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.

This is a site that discusses transformations and the processes.

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...

Students will explore the reflection of a shape across the x-axis with this interactive activity.

Mangahigh is a site that students can learn and practice math skills that are correlated to common core math standards. On this site students practice reflecting graphs of various functions using function notation.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Find a figure's lines of symmetry.

This article describes three types of mistakes and some strategies for transforming them into opportunities to grow your brain. Reflection questions are included.
