Connecting the Dots

In this lesson, students focus on communicating precisely about transformations of polygons on the coordinate grid. They must think carefully about what information is needed to describe a transformation in a clear, precise way. The coordinate grid plays a key role in this work, allowing students to effectively communicate the locations of polygons and how they are transformed.
