A World of Symmetry: Math-Geometry
Define and identify the three basic forms of symmetry translation, rotation, and glides with your class. They cut out and arrange paper pattern blocks to illustrate symmetry, create a Cartesian graph, and design a rug with a symmetrical...
Curated OER
Tessellations
Young scholars learn and review basic geometric terms, definitions, and theory, including regular polygons, lines, angles, points, etc. They make a tessellating stamp and create a repeating work of art.
Curated OER
Transformations
Students draw on graph paper. In this geometry instructional activity, students review types of triangles and quadrilaterals. Students investigate geometric transformations, including translation, rotation and reflection. Students...
