Which of the following are true for ALL L2 -L4 benchmarks on TRANSFORMATIONS?
SELECT ALL THAT APPLY.

• Items can be in mathematical or real-world context

• Rotations can be clockwise OR counter-clockwise

• Centers of rotations and dilations can be a point on the figure OR the origin

• Items involving a reflection across a line can include the x-axis, y-axis, or a horizontal or vertical line

For GR.2.1, what is the difference between an L2 and L3?

For GR.2.3, what is the difference between an L2 and L3?

SELECT ALL THAT APPLY.

• L2 has a sequence of up to 2 transformations; L3 is up to 3

• L3 includes rotations, not just translations and reflections

• L3 students must describe the sequence in words or coordinates vs. just words in L2

• L3 must have a real-world context

A sample question for GR.2.5 gives the directions shown below. What two transformations are given in one algebraic mapping?

Draw the resulting figure after quadrilateral 𝐴𝐵𝐶𝐷 is transformed using (𝑥, 𝑦) → (−𝑥, 𝑦 − 3).

Students also struggled with benchmarks GR.2.2 (Identify transformations that do or do not preserve distance) and
GR.2.6 (Apply rigid transformations to map one figure onto another to justify that the two figures are congruent)

DISCUSS WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS: Why do you think students had difficulty with these?

• Prove relationships and solve problems involving postulates and theorems of triangles.

• Solve mathematical and real-world problems involving congruence or similarity in two-dimensional figures

• Apply rigid transformations to map one figure onto another to justify that the two figures are congruent
