Reflections
Take some time to reflect on graphing. Learners count a point's distance from the line of reflection to create reflections of geometric figures. Given the rules for four basic lines of reflections, pupils determine the points to create...
Curated OER
Reflection
Eighth graders use a stencil to make a figure with which they discover the horizontal line of reflection, the vertical line of reflection, and the diagaonal line of reflection using coordinates.
