Learners explore reflections on a coordinate plane in this lesson. They trace their hand on a grid, determine the coordinates of each point, and create a scatter plot of their points. Pupils use this information to investigate aspect...

In this transformations learning exercise, students solve 5 multi-part short answer problems. Students transform images by reflecting them over a line or a point.  Students find the line and/or point symmetry of various figures.

Students compare/contrast paintings with similar subjects and themes. They discuss how a painting may relate to life experiences. Students draw animal families and compose a story about a painting by Gerome. They discuss zoos and...

Students discover rules for single transformations, rules for composition of transformations, when a figure has transformation symmetry, and if a transformation is congruent to its preimage.

Use this transformations activity to have learners describe given transformations. They identify rotations, reflections, and congruent images. This two-page activity contains three multi-step problems.

Students translate problem situations into diagrams, models, and numerals using whole numbers, fractions, mixed numbers, decimals, and percents. They identify that numbers in different forms are equivalent or not equivalent using whole...

Several practice exercises suitable for any geometry class working on transformation, symmetry, and tessellation -- especially visual representations of image translation, rotation, and reflection, symmetry, tessellations and tangrams --...

Sixth graders present a PowerPoint presentation on Greek columns. They realize that Greek culture is centered around religion. Students create a model of one of the columns. Also they find examples of Greek architecture in major Greek...

Tenth graders recognize, perform and derive rules for basic transformations including translation, reflection and rotation. They also consider compositions, a combination of two or more basic transformations. Students explore both...

Seventh graders create 3 original tessellation using polygons. They slide, turn, rotate and glide their designs on the computer. They print their tessellation on a T-shirt and teach the 6th graders about tessellations.

Young scholars study the literature and literary techniques of the early Middle Ages, thus preparing students to read Beowulf with an appreciation for its artistry and beauty. Young scholars solve online riddles, write riddles and study...

Students become familiar with how to get information from the Internet. In this math and technology lesson plan, students measure objects on a measurement sheet found on a web site. They practice using a standard unit of measurement...

Students learn about budgeting, saving, dept, financial management, opportunity cost, and self-regulation. For this financial management lesson, students apply their knowledge of finance components and create their own web based plan...

Learners learn about finance and money management and use math to solve problems, communicate, and explore real life situations as they deal with banks. In this financial management lesson, students apply their math skills to real life...

Graph transformations, write rules to describe transformations, find coordinates of vertices after given transformations: geometers practice these skills on a two-page worksheet in 14 problems. No answers are provided.

In this transformations worksheet, students identify the coordinates of triangle MNO after completing three translations and one reflection. Students use the triangle MNO with given coordinates to complete each transformation on the same...

Seventh graders complete activities to perform transformations of various figures and describe the transformations. In this transformations lesson, 7th graders perform a translation, a rotation, and a reflection on graph paper. Students...

In this Algebra II worksheet, 11th graders shift the absolute value function horizontally and vertically, stretch and shrink, and reflect parent function. The two page worksheet contains three problems. Answers are not provided. 

Students read and plot coordinates in all four quadrants and state where a shape will be after translation. They explore the concept of translation using a a four quadrant grid of the of River Tyne running through all 4 quads. In...

Students study strip patterns and identify symmetry. They create a paper doll chain. They experiment with different shapes. They determine if their chain is a strip pattern. They create snowflakes with triangles.

Seventh graders study a SouthEast Asian language and culture. They say, translate, and interpret three Asian proverbs and complete a discussion worksheet about what they experienced.

In this algebra worksheet, students identify different transformations based on the x and y axis reflections. They use vectors to do their translations. There are 28 questions.

Students study the Chinese characters and oracle bone inscriptions in order to understand the relevance of language to the reflection of cultural values. They examine the appearance of an oracle bone and the use of oracle bones in...

Tenth graders investigate the early history of geometry. For this geometry lesson, 10th graders investigate translations, rotations, and reflections. They also solve problems with line of symmetry and rotational symmetry while reviewing...
