About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 4 problems deciding how two plotted points are related.
This worksheet reads a reflection rather than producing one, which is the standard's own verb. Both coordinates changing sign is offered as an option and is not a reflection in either axis - it is a rotation about the origin - so a student who reasons that different signs mean a reflection gets it wrong. The pair is shown on a grid as well as in numbers, because a reflection is a picture and the coordinates are the claim about it. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
Student objectives
- Decide which coordinate changed sign.
- Name the axis a point was reflected across.
- Recognize when two points are not a reflection.
Everyday practice
- Compare two points and say what changed.
- Explain why changing both signs is not a reflection in an axis.
- Check a claim against the grid.
