Translations, Rotations, and Reflections

We will be starting our unit on translations, rotations, and reflections. Making translations, rotations, and reflections is moving objects around keeping thier original shape. I am posting links to help build your skills on translating, rotating, and reflecting objects. Please take your time going through each of the links and remember to have fun!
