Transformations—The Next Level

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Transform your geometry instruction by incorporating role play into math class. Pupils begin by completing an assessment to locate unknown angles, and then performing a simulation activity to better understand rotations, reflections, and translations. They complete the mathematical modeling exercise and conclude the lesson by participating in a class discussion to ensure their full understanding.
