Translation resources

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

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

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

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.

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 invariant properties of a translated and an enlarged shape.

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

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.

This task requires students to indicate the invariant properties of four transformations (translation, reflection, rotation, enlargement).

Students identify which of the three transformations (rotation, reflection, translation) were not used to create repeating koru patterns.

Students identify whether reflection, rotation, or translation best describes how a shape has been transformed.

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

Students identify the picture of a cat which best shows each of four described transformations of the original cat.

Students identify which transformations could have been used one shape onto another.

Students cut and glue shapes to complete patterns involving translation, reflection and rotation.
