The article discusses the kinesthetic approach for the development of concepts on function transformations. It notes that this approach involves students intellectually and physically. It presents no- or low-cost activities using kinesthetics to support the mathematical understanding of the function graph transformations of high school students. It also demonstrates how these activities are set-up as well as their basic shifts.
