Let's Get to the Point

A coordinate-grid game where you slide, spin, and flip a point to match a target using translations, rotations, and reflections. Play solo in Practice, Genius in Training, or Geometry Genius modes (Geometry Genius unlocks after finishing Genius in Training three times), or race a friend head-to-head. Controls: arrow keys or WASD to move, space or enter to confirm answers, mouse to click menu buttons.

Teaching Notes for Educators

Students move points and shapes with translations, reflections, and rotations, using both coordinate rules and a tracing paper tool.

The math: a translation adds to the coordinates, as in (x + 3, y + 2). A reflection flips a sign, over the y-axis for x or over the x-axis for y. A rotation turns a point about a center by 90°, 180°, or 270°.
Rigid motions: these moves keep size and shape, so the moved figure is congruent to the original.
Hands-on rotation: the tracing paper overlay works like the paper manipulative, with the center pinned by a pencil and exact feedback.
Common mistakes are named: the wrong direction, the wrong axis, swapped coordinates, and moving only one coordinate each get their own explanation.
Earning the challenge mode: Geometry Genius unlocks after a student fully completes Genius in Training three times, so they build the skills with supports before trying it without them.
Real life: animation, video game characters, robot arms, maps, and tile patterns all use these same moves.
