GO SOLO -My Collaborative Inquiry Year 11 (As 91034 1.9)Transformation Geometry





My colleagues and I have been working collaboratively sharing resources and ideas. This adds motivation, excitement and enthusiasm as we share creative ideas. 
We met with Karen Ferguson from the technology department and she is happy to help us with the later part of the internal assessment which is the laser cutting.

GO SOLO for As91034 ( 1.9)
Achievement
Achievement with Merit
Achievement with Excellence
·       Apply transformation geometry in solving problems.
·       Apply transformation geometry, using relational thinking, in solving problems.
·       Apply transformation geometry, using extended abstract thinking, in solving problems.

Students are also enjoying this topic and after introducing SOLO taxonomy they have a clearer understanding of the differences in Achievement, Merit and Excellence.

Achievement

Multi structural-skills


Rotation in design
Reflection in design
Enlargement in design
Translation in design
Achievement with Merit

Relational - Describe,Relate, sketch,two steps, and modelling

Rotation identified in description
Reflection identified in description
Enlargement identified in description
Translation identified in description
Achievement with Excellence

Extended Abstract-

 establish a model


Rotation descriptions of the specified shapes refer to centre, angle and direction
Reflections of the specified shape refer to the location of the mirror line
Enlargements of specified shapes refer to centre and scale factor
Translations of specified shapes refer to distance and direction
Re-writes instructions to take into size of stamp or billboard. This could include:
-          New dimensions of the pattern
-          New area of the pattern
-          Implications of new area
-          New instructions for translation
-          Invariant points unaffected by dimension change
-          Other insightful, relevant implications

I caught up with Ms Seini Tuitupou who successfully taught this topic two years ago and she shared resources in teaching transformation using google drawing.
We have almost finished the topic and practice tests are set for next week.
Here are some examples of student work:
