Students will work on applying the coordinate rules for rotations. You must provide instruction on the coordinate rules - check out my store for a task to discover coordinate rules and the free notes sheet for them!

The first few pages with the "my letter" tables allows students to access their own knowledge of what the word rotation would mean. Give them roughly two minutes to fill in as many boxes as they can with rotations of their letter. Do not provide assistance to them. After the time is up, have them meet with anyone else - I usually do people with the same letter - and they can compare the rotations that were created and fill in more of their boxes, if needed. After words, the following pages allo

This is a variety of practice where student practice identifying quadrilaterals based on given information in various formats (grid, no grid, markings, etc).

Practice with reflections across diagonal lines (y=x and y=-x): performing reflections, identifying reflections that have occurred, and error analysis of others' reflections.

Practice Worksheet where students can apply reflections using only coordinate rules (no patty paper, etc). This requires you have taught or allowed students to discover the coordinate rules for reflections in a coordinate plane.

This activity allows students to explore equivalent rotations individually, have conversations in partners and groups of 4 (if you desire), and develop equivalent rotations (and coordinate rules depending on grade implementation). Also search my store for the FREE equivalent rotation notes download that goes along with this activity/exploration!

Chunked practice with reflections - vertical lines, horizontal lines, and diagonal lines.

A notes sheet to follow up the exploration task of discovering equivalent rotations and coordinate rules for rotations. Check out my store for that activity!
