The Transformations Poster takes a closer look at Flips, Slides and Turns as part of the Year 5 and Year 2 curriculum.
Describes mathematical situations and methods using everyday and some mathematical language, actions, materials, diagrams and symbols
Supports conclusions by explaining or demonstrating how answers were obtained
Manipulates, sorts, represents, describes and explores two- dimensional shapes, including quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons and octagons
Describes and represents mathematical situations in a variety of ways using mathematical terminology and some conventions
Selects and applies appropriate problem- solving strategies, including the use of digital technologies, in undertaking investigations
Gives a valid reason for supporting one possible solution over another
Manipulates, classifies and draws two-dimensional shapes, including equilateral, isosceles and scalene triangles, and describes their properties
Visualises, sketches and constructs three-dimensional objects, including prisms and pyramids, making connections to two-dimensional representations
Investigate the effect of one-step slides and flips with and without digital technologies
Describe translations, reflections and rotations of two-dimensional shapes. Identify line and rotational symmetries
Apply the enlargement transformation to familiar two dimensional shapes and explore the properties of the resulting image compared with the original
Describe and perform translations, reflections and rotations of shapes, using dynamic geometric software where appropriate; recognise what changes and what remains the same, and identify any symmetries
Investigate the effect of one-step slides and flips with and without digital technologies
Describe translations, reflections and rotations of two-dimensional shapes. Identify line and rotational symmetries
