Students may translate vertically before horizontally.

Remind the students that the column vectors work in the same way as coordinates.

Vector - A vector can be used to describe a translation.
Translation - Translation is a transformation in which every point of a shape moves the same distance in the same direction.
Congruent - If one shape can fit exactly on top of another using rotation, reflection or translation, then the shapes are congruent.
Vertex - A vertex is the point where two or more line segments meet. The plural is vertices.
