Mathematical Movements (Flips, Slides and Turns) - A 25 page lesson with printables

Measuring Turns - What would shapes look like if rotated

Sam's Similar Shapes - Students learn about shapes that are different sizes but the same shape.

Spy Guys Interactive - Slides and Flips - Lesson 17

Transformations - How to identify, describe, perform, and analyze transformations involving translations, reflections, and rotations

Transformations and Symmetry - Many good examples on this Math Art Connections page includes a student project assignment at the end

Wrapping Paper Patterns - Decide which figures would result from a flip, a slide, or a turn
