Education Specialist Donna Ash put a new twist, turn and hop to teaching transformations. See the video that students will be talking about when they return 14 years from now.
BTW: The COS objective introduced in the video is Math, Grade 8, 17.) Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them. [8-G2]. and 18.) Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-dimensional figures using coordinates. [8-G3] and 19.) Understand that a two-dimensional figure is similar to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations; given two similar two-dimensional figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the similarity between them. [8-G4].
