QUESTION 1
, 1.1 Planning a Lesson on "Transformations" for Grade 6
1.1.1 Formulating Three Questions to Establish Prior Knowledge
1. What do you know about shapes and how they can change their
position?
o Purpose: To gauge if learners understand basic geometric shapes
and the concept of changing their positions.
2. Can you name any movements or actions that change the position or
orientation of an object?
o Purpose: To see if students are familiar with terms like "slide,"
"flip," or "turn," which are related to transformations.
3. Have you ever seen a reflection of yourself in a mirror? What happens
to your image?
o Purpose: To introduce the concept of reflection, a type of
transformation, by relating it to everyday experiences.

Activity 1: Exploring Translations
• Objective: Understand the concept of translation (sliding).
• Materials: Graph paper, colored pencils, ruler.
• Step-by-Step Explanation:
1. Draw a shape (e.g., a triangle) on graph paper.
2. Label the vertices of the triangle (e.g., A, B, C).
