Transformations-Translations
Students perform transformations and translation on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, students move shapes around on a graph identifying translation, image, and transformation. This lesson has an interactive part online that...
Curated OER
Geometric Transformations
Students solve problems involving transformations of geometric figures. They review graphing points in the coordinate plain, plot points and connect to create a triangle. Then, they reflect triangles over the x and y axis and use...
