Reflections in the Plane
Have your class explore the concept of reflections as they use Cabri Jr. to construct a triangle and reflect it over a line. Learners reflect shapes across the coordinate plane and across the lines y = x and y = -x.

Handy Reflections
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...
Curated OER
Geometry Exam
In this reflections and symmetry activity, students draw lines of symmetry in shapes and patterns and reflect letters over lines in graphs. Students complete 20 problems.
Curated OER
Symmetry of Road Signs
Students identify symmetry in road signs. In this geometry lesson, students explore objects in the real world for symmetry. They perform translation, rotation and reflection.
