1. Geometric Translations of the World
By: Lexi, Chance, Erik

2. What are Transformations?
Transformations are changes in the position or size in an object.
Translations
Rotations
Reflections

3. What is a Translation?
At the park, Erik decided to go down the straight and narrow big kid slide. This is an example of a translation.
Translations are when you move one object or item in any direction without rotating ( slide ).

4. What is a Reflection?
One early morning, Chance looked in his bathroom mirror to make sure his hair was perfect and “ship-shape.”
A Reflection is a mirror view ( Flip ).

5. What is a Rotation?
Lexi decided to go outside and let the soft wind blow her new pinwheel around and around. This is an example of a rotation.
A rotation is when a shape or object moves around in a circular way, without moving one point, like a pivot in basketball ( turn ).
