Rotation:

The Little Spinner
WHAT IS IT?

Rotation symmetry is when a shape or an object moves around a given point, like the blades on a fan or the hubcaps on a moving car.  The object or shape doesn't change, but its position on the coordinate plane does. After watching the video get on the rides to the right to practice what you've learned. Navigate back to the home page when you're ready and enter another attraction! Have fun!

All of these have rotation symmetry. Can you think of other common things around your house or in your neighborhood that have rotation symmetry? Chat about it with your friends!
