Practice translations on the coordinate plane with this Translations Coordinate Plane Activity. Students translate figures using given rules, then record the original coordinates, translation rule, and new image coordinates.

Each original problem includes two related translation problems, giving students 24 total translation problems to complete. The original pre-image is also shown in a transparent form on the student pages, helping students reference the starting points without making the original figure the main focus.

An organizing sheet is included so students can keep track of the pre-image coordinates, translation rules, and new image coordinates as they work. This activity works well for independent practice, review, math centers, homework, or sub plans.

What’s Included:

• 12 original translation problems

• 24 total translation practice problems

• Given translation rules

• Transparent pre-image reference figures

• Coordinate recording sheet

• Organizing answer sheet

• Completed answer key

• Print-ready student pages

Perfect for:

• Translations practice

• Transformations review

• Coordinate plane practice

• Pre-image and image coordinates

• 8th grade geometry

• CCSS 8.G.A.3

• Math centers

• Independent practice

• Homework

• Sub plans

Recording the pre-image coordinates, rule, and image coordinates helps students see how a translation moves every point the same distance and direction.
