Curated OER
The REAL Transformers
Ninth graders create a model of a hydroelectric generator. In this physics lesson, 9th graders discuss how energy can be transformed from one form to another. They make a flow chart for different energy generating plants.
Curated OER
Transformers
Students use transformation to move the graph around. In this geometry lesson plan, students observe transformation of symmetry groups. They use the TI to move the sides of the polygons around and make predictions.
