To solve this worksheet, we need to look at each pair of pictures and decide how the first picture changed to become the second one. Here are the definitions:
*
Slide: The object moves to a new spot but stays upright. It looks exactly the same, just in a different place.
*
Flip: The object is mirrored, like looking in a reflection. Left becomes right, and right becomes left.
*
Turn: The object is rotated. It might be upside down or on its side.
Let's go through them row by row:
Row 1:
1.
Party Hats: The hat on the right is facing the opposite direction of the one on the left. It is a mirror image. ->
flip
2.
Mugs: The mug has been rotated so the handle is pointing down instead of to the side. ->
turn
3.
Cats: The cat on the right is facing the opposite way (looking left instead of right). It is a mirror image. ->
flip
Row 2:
4.
Boy: The boy is lying on his side. He has been rotated. ->
turn
5.
Baby/Doll: The baby on the right looks exactly like the one on the left, just moved over. ->
slide
6.
Car: The car is upside down. It has been rotated. ->
turn
Row 3:
7.
Paintbrushes: The brush on the right is a mirror image of the one on the left (the bristles curve the other way). ->
flip
8.
Houses: The house on the right looks exactly like the one on the left, just moved over. ->
slide
9.
Lamps: The lamp on the right is leaning the opposite way. It is a mirror image. ->
flip
Row 4:
10.
Pentagons: The shape on the right looks exactly like the one on the left, just moved over. ->
slide
11.
Ice Cream: The ice cream is tipped over on its side. It has been rotated. ->
turn
12.
Flowers: The flower on the right looks exactly like the one on the left, just moved over. ->
slide
Final Answer:
1. flip
2. turn
3. flip
4. turn
5. slide
6. turn
7. flip
8. slide
