Rigid Transformations Reflections Guided Notes & Doodles | 8th Grade Geometry

Overview

Introduce rigid transformation, specifically reflections across the x-axis, y-axis, and the line y=x, with this Reflections Guided Notes & Doodles resource. It contains 10 pages total, including guided notes, a practice coloring worksheet, and a real-life math application for graphing figures on coordinate planes after reflections over the x-axis, reflections over the y-axis, reflections over the line y-x, writing rules for reflections when given graphed figures, and writing coordinate points for preimages and images for figures undergoing reflections. It works well as graphic organizers, scaffolded notes, and interactive notebooks. And it's artsy—if your students love color by number, color by code, or sketch notes, they'll love these lessons.
