This interactive resource, produced by the University of Leicester, is designed to enable students to explore transformations of functions including translations, stretches, reflection in the axes and rotations.

The first activity uses function notation to explore translations parallel to the x axis and...

This interactive resource, produced by the University of Leicester, is designed to enable students to explore transformations of shapes including translation by a vector, stretches, rotations around a point, reflection in the axes and reflections in the lines y=x and y=-x.

The first activity draws a...

This resource consists of four interactive excel files dealing with single transformations of 2D shapes.

Transformation: Enlargement...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 9A which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the first half of year 9.

Transformations covers: a review of the names and properties of common 2D shapes, translating by a vector, enlargements, reflections, rotations and combining transformations....

This lesson develops the concept of transformations. In particular students will:

• Describe in words the transformation that maps an object to a transformed image
• Given a geometric figure and a transformation, draw the transformed figure
• Describe transformations as algebraic functions...

In this DfE Standards Unit resource, students learn to recognise and visualise transformations of 2D shapes and translate, rotate, reflect and combine these transformations. Students unfamiliar with the terms ‘rotation’, ‘reflection’ and ‘translation’ will need some introduction to these. The session also assumes...

This series of activities from NASA take a mathematical approach to looking at transits, eclipses and occultations. They are intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in mathematics and physical science from age 11 to 19 years.

The problems were created to be authentic...

This lesson develops the concept of converting between and ordering fractions, decimals, and percentages. The lesson uses area and linear models of fractions, decimals, and percentages to understand equivalence.

The main activity is a collaborative exercise. Students must collect together cards that show a...

This lesson develops the concept of translating between decimal and fraction notation, particularly when decimals are repeating. This is achieved by

• Creating and solving simple liner equations to find the fractional equivalent of a repeating decimal
• Understanding the effect of multiplying a...

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of translations and vectors, from creating border patterns to working with vectors.

Translations and vectors pack one contains twelve work cards with a...

A transparent cube has a wire wrapped around it. The Top, Side and Front views are presented and then three cubes with wire are presented. The challenge is to determine which cube goes with the 2D views. A further challenge is to show the 2D representations for the remaining cubes. This resource is suitable for Key...

The cost of transportation is a key factor for many industries. This activity features a classic transportation problem giving the outputs of two suppliers, the demands of two consumers and the associated transportation costs. Students are asked to find the minimum transportation cost to meet the demand. Students...
