CCSS.Math.Content.8.G.A.1 - Verify experimentally the properties of rotations, reflections, and translations:

CCSS.Math.Content.8.G.A.1.a - Lines are taken to lines, and line segments to line segments of the same length.

CCSS.Math.Content.8.G.A.1.b - Angles are taken to angles of the same measure.

CCSS.Math.Content.8.G.A.1.c - Parallel lines are taken to parallel lines.

1. Flip, Slide, or Turn - Six flash movies allow you to watch the path an object takes while it is being transformed
2. Mathematical Movements (Flips, Slides and Turns) - A 25 page lesson with printables
3. Measuring Turns - What would shapes look like if rotated
4. Sam's Similar Shapes - Students learn about shapes that are different sizes but the same shape.
5. Spy Guys Interactive - Slides and Flips - Lesson 17
6. Transformations - How to identify, describe, perform, and analyze transformations involving translations, reflections, and rotations
7. Transformations and Symmetry - Many good examples on this Math Art Connections page includes a student project assignment at the end
8. Wrapping Paper Patterns - Decide which figures would result from a flip, a slide, or a turn
