About this resource
What's inside this resource
Students get tired of the typical "reflect the single point over the line" and "reflect the triangle over the x-axis." By 5th grade, the students have probably seen the "reflection" lesson at least 3 times! This lesson is a little more advanced and involves a little more thought and just might excite your students!!! (I know my kids LOVE using art in math)
