Students investigate geometry with the use of a creative project. They review relevant vocabulary that includes turn, flip, side, and angles. Students also practice conducting transformations used as inspiration for the project. Then...

Middle and high schoolers complete Caley's table to indicate rotating a square 90, 180, and 270 degrees. They also reflect a square across the vertical and horizontal line. This one-page worksheet contains eight movements.

Fifth graders duplicate patterns, guess pattern results and identify the symmetries created. They are given an instructional handout, 5th graders replicate the patterns demonstrated by folding the paper and punching the appropriate...

Young scholars explore slope as a rate of change. In this eighth grade mathematics lesson, students investigate real-world problems to determine rate of change and transform it into a linear representation, thus determining slope. Young...

Rotate this resource into your lesson plans. Scholars rotate polygons in the coordinate plane by multiples of 90 degrees. They then compare the original and new figures to develop conjectures about coordinate points after rotations.

This activity focuses in on the structure of an equation and how it compares to another. Young algebraists are tasked with grouping together equations that have the same solution by focusing on the transformation of the equations rather...

Students identify, compare, and analyze shapes and numbers. In this analogies and comparison math lesson plan, students warm up by completing 4 worksheets to familiarize themselves with analogies. In small groups, students are challenged...

Students explore lines, rays, line segments, and planes. In this math instructional activity, students discuss the math concepts and direct their instructor in graphing functions. Students collaborate in graphing additional functions.

Students examine how some transformations, such as reflections and rotations, do not change the figure itself, only its position or orientation.

So, exactly, what does it look like? The easily usable graphing calculator allows pupils to visualize the graph of equations and inequalities. The interactive supports any algebraic graph needed for high school mathematics and then some.

In this integration activity, students transform antiderivatives and integrals by using substitution functions. They sketch graphs of two antiderivatives and describe their relationship. Students use trigonometric identities to find the...

Fourth graders, after listing the nine planets and their differences, choose one planet as their favorite. From the information acquired on each students favorite planet, they make a graph illustrating their favorites and then transform...

Students perform translation and transformation of functions. In this algebra lesson, students write the formula for the different transformation and graph given translation. They compare the change to the parent function.

In this glide reflection worksheet, students draw and answer questions about reflections of different shapes. Students answer 5 questions.

In this transformations worksheet, students find examples of Rutherford Boyd's art and then make their own art including shapes and transformations. Students then write a paragraph about the shapes and transformations they used.

Learners explore the concept of ordered pairs. In this ordered pairs lesson, pupils list the ordered pairs of a graph in the shape of a fish. They use their calculator to translate the fish using lists, then translate the fish left,...

Use this geometry review worksheet to have learners complete nine problems involving transformations, area, volume, and unit conversions. They answer one multiple choice question on estimating lengths.

Youngsters recognize that triangles can be combined together to make various shapes. The learning activity provides a series of seven steps that engage children in applying transformations to triangles. Pupils use a quilt template and...

Why is that graph wider? Pupils learn about stretching and shrinking graphs of square root, absolute value, cubic, and quadratic functions. They study both vertical and horizontal stretches and shrinks in addition to reflections. 

Multiplication in polar form is nice and neat—that is not the case for coordinate representation. Multiplication by a complex number results in a dilation and a rotation in the plane. The formulas to show the dilation and rotation are...

Here are four questions which require learners to examine four pairs of visual analogies and then choose a figure that completes a missing part of an analogy that is the same as the one shown. They then get to create their own visual...

This resource offers a series of hands-on activities in which learners sketch and construct symmetrical origami, paper dolls, snowflakes, and polyhedra while adhering to specific requirements. These activities ask class members to...

A hands-on lesson using the TI-CBR Motion Detector to provide information to graph and analyze. The class uses this information to calculate the slope of motion graphs and differentiate scalar and vector quantities. There is a real-world...
