Slides, Flips, and Turns - Children's Literature

Geometry is something that some of us just take for granted, but the very basic concepts are presented in this title which is part of the “My Path to Math” series. The concepts of mirror images and flipping something upside as well as turning it over are demonstrated with familiar shapes. The math lesson is part of a story which involves a young girl named Sofia preparing a birthday card for her grandmother. Her mother tells her about transformations—the different ways a flat shape can be moved on a flat surface.
