People across the globe can now experience the rich history of Egypt as it unfolded through a Virtual Reality experience. Game designers, 3D artists, and Virtual Reality experts are painstakingly recreating the journey of Howard Carter while making it a fun and engaging.

Use Geometric Transformation to help students visualize basic geometric transformations on a four-Quadrant grid. Draw figures on an XY grid. As shapes are draw the coordinate pairs that describe the vertices are automatically labeled. Once a figure is draw it can be transformed by tapping an icon representing one of the four operations: reflect, dilate, rotate and translate. Suggestions for what to draw are randomly generated so the app presents an unlimited amount of geometric challenges.
