MSET635 VIDEO PROJECT

LESSON OVERVIEW Target Audience: High School Geometry

(9th/10th graders), any level Goals: Visualize and create rigid motion

transformations, while predicting outcomes and testing hypotheses

Standards: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSG.CO.A.2

Represent transformations in the plane using, e.g., transparencies and geometry software

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSG.CO.A.5 Given a geometric figure and a rotation, reflection,

or translation, draw the transformed figure using, e.g., graph paper, tracing paper, or geometry software. 

BRAINY BITS Appeals to Bloom’s Taxonomy with

critical thinking skillsPredictRecognize patternsDevelop and test hypotheses

Beneficial to visual learners by appealing to the occipital lobe by cementing partnership between words and outcomesEx. Match word “rotation” with a visual

rotation
