Using shapes on grids, students translate points by different vectors.

Using shapes on grids, students translate points by different vectors.

Students identify the centre of rotation and the number of degrees through which a rectangle has been rotated. They then rotate it in a different direction.

Using shapes on grids, students translate points by different vectors.

In a shape made up of triangles, students identify lines of symmetry for pairs of triangles and identify pairs of triangles which reflect through a line of symmetry.

Students identify vectors that describe shape translations.

Students identify what shapes look like when rotated through half and quarter turns.

Students identify what a shape plus its image will look like when reflected in a given mirror line.

Students show their understanding of reflection by drawing in the reflected images of four shapes along mirror lines.

For this task students are required to demonstrate their understanding of transformations. On three separate grids, they translate, reflect and rotate the same basic shape.

This task requires students to indicate, in a table, the invariant properties of four transformations (translation, reflection, rotation, enlargement) of a picture of a traffic light.

On a grid, students enlarge the net for a box by a scale factor of 3.

This task requires students to describe the three transformations an animal picture has gone through, choosing from reflection, rotation, translation, and enlargement.

Students need to identify which of the three transformations - translation, reflection, or rotation - has been applied to an animal wallpaper pattern.

Students complete shape patterns which show translation, reflection, or rotation.

Students identify the angles of rotation that enable shapes to fit onto themselves.

Students identify which transformations could have been performed on pairs of shapes.

Students draw reflections of words in a horizontal axis.

Student reflect words in horizontal and vertical axes.

Students specify the smallest angle of rotation so a shape remains the same.

Students identify what a sheet of paper will look like when it is folded and has shapes cut from it.

Students identify which transformation have been used to make different pictures of frogs.

Students identify what transformations are used to continue a pattern.

Students identify which transformation has been used to map one shape onto another.

Students choose which transformation is being used to continue a pattern.
