TEKS Transformations for Kindergarteners V. C. 1 Child names common shapes. MATH. K. 6 A Identify two-dimensional shapes, including circles, triangles, rectangles, and squares as special rectangles. MATH. K. 6 B Identify three-dimensional solids, including cylinders, cones, spheres, and cubes, in the real world. MATH. K. 6 C Identify two-dimensional components of three-dimensional objects. MATH. K. 6 B Identify attributes of two-dimensional shapes using informal and formal geometric language interchangeably. MATH. K. 6 E Classify and sort a variety of regular and irregular two- and three-dimensional figures regardless of orientation or size.

Definition of Transformation - An operation that maps or moves the points of a figure in a plane.

Definition of Translation A translation (notation ) is a transformation of the plane that slides every point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.

Definition of Reflection A transformation in which a geometric figure is reflected across a line, creating a mirror image. That line is called the axis of reflection.

Definition of Rotation. A transformation in which a plane figure turns around a fixed center point. In other words, one point on the plane, the center of rotation, is fixed and everything else on the plane rotates about that point by a given angle.
