-Motion Geometry: Rotations,
Reflections and Translations
Performance
• Ask students to do a List, Sort and Label. Provide small groups 
of students with a set of index cards containing images of 
transformations and key terms from the unit. The small groups are 
to discuss their LIST and create a method by which to SORT them.
Once the cards have been sorted, the group will use blank index 
cards to create a LABEL for the sub groups they created as criteria for 
sorting as well as a title for the whole collection of terms. Different 
groups may devise differing, equally legitimate ways to sort the 
terms which are equally legitimate. The discussion and justification 
between group members is more important than a uniform result.
For students who struggle, this may be scaffolded by providing
suggestions of categories into which the terms may be sorted.
(5SS8.5)
Journal
• Ask students to use the following story starters in a journal, choosing 
the correct stem for a set of images provided:
I know this is a reflection because...
I know this is a translation because...
I know this is a rotation because... (5SS8.5)
Interview
• Provide students with a variety of completed transformations. Ask them 
to identify the type of transformation and explain how they know.
(5SS8.5)
Paper and Pencil
• Ask students to complete a chart similar to the one below. Provide 
various transformations on individual cards.
