About This Lesson

Ever wondered how to teach translations in an engaging way to your eighth-grade students?

In this lesson plan, students will learn about rigid transformations, specifically translations, and their real-life applications. Through artistic and interactive guided notes, check for understanding, a practice coloring activity, and a maze worksheet, students will gain a comprehensive understanding of translations.

The lesson begins with guided notes that introduce the topic and teach students how to graph figures on coordinate planes after translation, write rules for translation using arrow notation, and write coordinate points for preimages and images for figures undergoing translation. The guided notes integrate checks for understanding to ensure that students are on the right track.

The lesson culminates with a real-life application exercise where students will read and write about how translations are used in real-life situations. This exercise allows students to see the practicality and relevance of the topic in the world around them.
