In this congruency worksheet, 5th graders complete 4 questions about congruent figures and transformations. Page has links to additional activities.

In this transformations/translation worksheet, students draw transformations based on shapes and vectors of given translations. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Students solve real life scenarios using math. In this geometry instructional activity, students collect, predict and interpret data. They measure a chair using different measurements and choose what would make the chair the best design.

Learners use the digital camera, identify geometric shapes (in nature as well as man-made), and gain a better understanding of geometric vocabulary. They search for and recognize geometric shapes in unusual settings

NOT A LESSON Students

Second graders create a Geo-Folder based on geometric terms and concepts. They make a Table of Contents that guides them through the process of assembling a folder of completed activities.

Seventh graders review the process of finding the area of a rectangle and complete a couple of examples as a class. They discuss what a parallelogram is and what the formula would be for finding its area. They listen to an explanation...

Students work in pairs, to make a square on the geoboards with a rubber band (or draw one on the dot paper). It can be any size and in any location and share their answers with the class.

This task uses GeoGebra software, which can be freely downloaded, to explore what happens to the line segments and angles of a triangle when it is reflected, rotated, and translated. Includes printable task sheet for students and a...

For this lesson, students will learn how to identify, describe, graph, and write geometric reflections and rotations.

Students are introduced to translations, reflections, and rotations and how to explore them in real-world scenarios.

For this geometry game, students must guide Transtar, an alien spaceship, across space by applying transformations to it. At the same time, there are dangers to avoid and the number of moves and tries are limited.

This lesson plan shows elementary learners how they can know that rigid motions like reflections, rotations, and translations create a shape congruent to the original.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Translate, rotate, and reflect figures using coordinate notation and graphing in the coordinate plane.

This multimedia Learn Alberta math resource looks at real world examples of transformations found throughout West Edmonton Mall. The accompanying interactive component asks students to predict transformations through looking at...

In this lesson, students will learn how to describe and identify reflections, rotations, translations, and dilations.

In this activity, students will investigate the relationship among the three types of rigid transformations - translations, rotations, and reflections.

An introductory look at the interactive Geometer's Sketchpad in terms of using it to explore rotations, translations, and reflections. Only a beginner's amount of skill with the program is needed. Exploration questions are given for the...

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan introduces a variety of motion geometry concepts such as translations, reflections, and rotations. Lots of interactive support for students.

This site presents information on the three basic transformations of figures in a plane: Reflections, Rotations, and 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...

Students move their cursor in this activity center to occupy a unique point on a background letter "F" in quadrant 1. Students then together follow a rule for going to a different point (such as "use the opposite of the original x...

In this activity, students describe how to move a shape from one place to another in a plane. They learn about translations, rotations, and line reflections. [Requires Adobe Reader.]

Shodor Education Foundation provides an applet that "allows the user to explore the world of transformations, reflections, and rotations. It allows the user to translate triangles, squares, and parallelograms on both the x and y-axes."
