The Maths Habit
Shape A has moved three times.
Which has flipped? Which has turned? Which has slid?
B has flipped. D has turned. C has slid.
- Reflect
- Flip the shape over a mirror line.
- Rotate
- Turn the shape about a point, the cross.
- Translate
- Slide the shape. A vector says how far.
Read the word. Flip, turn or slide?
Reflect
Count the squares from each corner to the line.
Count the same past it.
Rotate
Count from the cross to P. Say which way.
180°: the same, the opposite way. Trace and turn.
Translate
Read the vector: right or left, up or down.
Move every corner the same.

Translate the shape by 42.
Reflect the shape in the mirror line.
Translate the shape by 5−2.
- reflect: count to the line

Answer sheet
A rectangle is 2 squares wide and 3 squares tall. It is enlarged by scale factor 2. How tall is the new rectangle?
