Try these interactive and structured notes to help your students understand transformations on the coordinate plane.

Manipulative shapes are used to help students visualize the movements and the use of patty paper (or tracing paper) is optional, but will add that extra zip to your lesson! Highlighters will also add visual interest to your presentation.

These notes are perfect for use in interactive notebooks. Students will investigate translations, reflections, rotations, and dilations.

A brief review worksheet and answer keys are included as well.
