Description

Are you in need of a Geometric Transformations discovery lesson? This full lesson will help students gain deeper understanding of transformations because they are discovering properties themselves. See below for detailed directions!

This resource includes

  • Aligning Common Core Standards
  • Lesson plan instructions
  • Student graphic organizer (2 versions)
  • Class summary posters (2 versions)

 

✨How This Activity Works✨

  1. Print one copy of the brainstorm graphic organizer per team or per student.
  2. Give students time to discuss and write down their ideas. (Notice & Wonder)
  3. Have students summarize their ideas into one word.
  4. I had hung the class summary posters around the room on my whiteboards. Using that one word, team members added it to the board around the poster.
  5. After, I went around discussing with the class what the academic word for each transformation was. I linked their discoveries to the academic term which helps provide ownership of the learning.
