Abstract
- In this paper, I share an activity that reinforces students' understanding of translations, reflections, and rotations via body movement. As a result of this activity, students gain a different perspective compared to previous explorations on paper, communicate mathematics, and visualize transformations as rigid motions on the plane. Furthermore, the combination of sensation and perception helped some students assess whether their work was correct. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
