**There is no PDF available for this week**
This week we are focusing on Identify, create, and analyze single transformations of 2-D shapes (with and without the use of technology). (SS5.7)
Single transformations of 2-D shapes - rotations
When we rotate an image, we turn a shape on a point of rotation. We can turn or rotate the image clockwise or counterclockwise. The point of rotation will be on one of the vertices of the shape.
Think about the hands on a clock. When the minute hand moves from the 12 to the 3, it rotates a quarter turn clockwise.
When the minute hand moves from the 12 to the 6, It rotates a half turn clockwise.
When the minute hand move from the 12 to the 9, it rotates a three-quarter turn.
Please click the link below to watch how to rotate objects.
Draw a square and label the vertices A, B, C and D. Rotate the square 3/4 turn clockwise and label the image and its vertices.
Draw a shape (not a circle) of your choice. Choose a vertex to rotate your shape 1/4 turn counterclockwise. Label your image and the vertices.
Once you have finished, take a picture and email or text the picture to ct.sdillon@gmail.com or 306-821-1392.
