Given a coordinate plane, the student will graph dilations, reflections, and translations, and use those graphs to solve problems.

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

Students are introduced to translations, reflections, and rotations and how to explore them in real-world scenarios.

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...

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan introduces a variety of motion geometry concepts such as translations, reflections, and rotations. Lots of interactive support for students.

For this geometry game, students must guide Transtar, an alien spaceship, across space by applying transformations to it. At the same time, there are dangers to avoid and the number of moves and tries are limited.

Given rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations, students will be able to develop algebraic representations for rotations and generalize and then compare and contrast the properties of congruence transformations and...

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

This lesson focuses on wallpaper groups. While there are infinitely many possible patterns, they all have one of just 17 different symmetry groups. These are called the Wallpaper Groups. Every wallpaper group is defined by a combination...

This activity is designed to reinforce the concepts of reflections and translations by having the students create a virtual puppet using Cabri Jr. As they construct their puppets, students will reinforce their understanding of...

This University of Regina site gives some history and definitions about translations and symmetry.

Given rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations, students will be able to develop algebraic representations for rotations, and generalize and then compare and contrast the properties of congruence transformations and...

This site is a Geometer's Sketch Pad lesson plan where students explore tessellations through reflections, rotations, and translations.

Students will be in groups and plot given points. From the given points the students will plot the appropriate reflection or translation.

Get independent practice working with transformations. Each incorrect response gets a text box explanation and another try. Correct responses are confirmed.

Enjoy constructions created by rotations, reflections and translations. [Requires Java.]

In this lesson on transformations and congruence, 8th graders will investigate dilations, rotations, reflections, and translations on the coordinate plane and the figures that result from these transformations.

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."

Find a quick, concise explanation of the transformations of graphs: translations, reflections and rotations. Examples are given and clearly explained for each transformation.

Build your own polygon and transform it in the Cartesian coordinate system. Experiment with reflections across any line, rotations about any point, and translations in any direction.

Students move their cursor in this activity center to occupy a unique point on a background letter "F" in quadrant 1. Students then together follow a rule for going to a different point (such as "use the opposite of the original x...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Translate, rotate, and reflect figures using coordinate notation and graphing in the coordinate plane.

The purpose of this task is to apply translations and reflections to the graphs of the functions f(x)=cos x and g(x)=sin x in order to derive some trigonometric identities. There are also rotations 180 degrees about points on the x-axis...

This lesson shows elementary learners how they can know that rigid motions like reflections, rotations, and translations create a shape congruent to the original.
