2. TEKS Grade: Kindergarten
Geometry and Measurement.
The student is expected to:
(A) identify two-dimensional shapes, including circles, triangles, rectangles, and squares as special rectangles.
Geometry and spatial reasoning.
The student describes the relative positions of objects. The student is expected to:
(A) describe one object in relation to another using informal language such as over, under, above, and below; and
(B) place an object in a specified position.

3. Transformation
Moving a shape so that it is in a different position, but still has the same size, area, angles and line lengths.
These are Transformations: Translation, Reflection, and Rotation.

4. Example Turn, flip or slide are the basic moves.
This is an example of a turn (rotational) Transformation.

6. Translation
Is a transformation motion of a plane that moves every point of the plane a specified distance in a specified direction along a straight line.
Simply means moving without rotating, resizing or anything else, just moving.

7. Example
Every point of the shape must move: the same distance in the same direction.
This is an example of a Translation.

9. Reflection
Is line, L, a transformation from the plane to the plane that pairs each point, P, with a point, P, in such a way that, L, is the Perpendicular Bisector of, PP1, as long as, P, is not, L. If, P, is on, L, then P=P1.
Every point is the same distance from the central line and the reflection has the same size as the original image. The central line is called the Mirror Line. A reflection is a flip over a line.

10. Example
The reflected image is always the same size, it just faces the other way.
This is an example of a Reflection.

12. Rotation
Is a transformation of a plane determine by holding one point, the center, fixed and rotating the plane about this point by a certain direction (a certain number of degrees either clockwise or counter clockwise).
Means turning around a center. The distance from the center to any point on the shape stays the same.

13. Example Every point makes a circle around the center.
This is an example of a Rotation.
