Provides real world examples of symmetry in architecture, including pictures of each kind of symmetry, examples, acknowledgements, and a bibliography.

Students can use this interactive site to practice various geometric concepts such as rotations, reflections, translations, tesselations and geometric patterns.

This is a site that discusses transformations and the processes.

A rigid motion of the plane is a map of the plane to itself which preserves distances between points. The purpose of this task is to use fixed points as a tool for studying and classifying rigid motions of the plane, i.e., translations,...

[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...

This hands-on lesson 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'...

Students explore slides, flips, and turns in this interactive web lesson.

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]

Choose a transformation and apply it to a shape to observe the resulting image.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan examines the mathematical nature of art, tilings and tessellations. Students will also explore polygons, symmetry, analyze patterns and explore the role of mathematics in nature and our...

This one page website can expand your logic, Motion Geometry and pattern recognition knowledge. The solution is available to double check your answers.

On this one page interactive website expand your logic, Motion Geometry and pattern recognition knowledge while working on this challenge. The solution is available to double check your solution.

Go to Tessellation Town on Tile Island and create a variety of tessellations.

[Free Registration/Login Required] In this flipchart, students apply multiple transformations to create congruent and similar figures in any or all of the four quadrants. Students apply their geometric sense by using multiple...

Follow the directions at this one page website. You will get lots of practice plotting points on the coordinate grid and experience with transformational geometry.

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.
