Mathematics Grade 8 – Unit 1 (SAMPLE) Possible time frame: 20 days In this unit students will explore translations, reflections, and rotations. This is the first time students have been introduced to transformations. This unit should begin by transforming points to help develop the properties of each transformation. Once students have developed an understanding of each transformation and some of their properties, begin verifying the properties through experiments. Through experiments students should solidify their understanding of each transformation and fully develop the properties of each. Design experiments with the initial and transformed geometric item along with a particular transformation (or series of transformations) that was performed. Students will then determine if the proposed transformation (or series of transformations) actually works and possibly alter the proposed transformation (or series of transformations) to one that does carry the initial item onto the transformed one. Students will then apply their understandings of the transformations to two-dimensional figures. The criteria for figure congruence will be established through rigid motion and applied to help students create a sequence of transformations that would carry one figure onto another. You may consider beginning transformations of figures on a blank grid and then extend to the coordinate plane. Students will begin to formalize the effects of translations, reflections, and rotations in terms of coordinates.
