red for states where you've not spent much time or seen very much.
amber for states where you've at least slept and seen some sights.
blue for states you've spent a lot of time in or seen a fair amount of.
green for states you've spent a great deal of time in on multiple visits or lived in.

Transformation G-CO.A.5

No comments
I've been working hard on developing a unit for teaching geometry with Common Core. Transformation are a concept that supports a lot of the rest of the concepts in Geometry. We decided to move the pacing around so we could spend time and get in-depth with transformations and then we can use it when we start teaching congruence. So is my unit that I did with my geometry classes. These are just the worksheets that you would pass out, and I lead the teaching from them. Please leave me any comments and feel free to share and change as much as you want.

G-CO.A.5 Transformations


The end result is we made posters in class that summarized all the work we did and now we refer to them in class when we are talking about congruence. The formulas are especially helpful.
