Engage students in collaborative learning with a rotational symmetry colouring activity. Each student contributes to a four-piece design, ensuring identical colouring within groups. When combined, their creations form a vibrant and symmetrical artwork, fostering a fun and artistic approach to understanding rotational symmetry in a team setting.
Recognise line and rotational symmetry of shapes and create symmetrical patterns and pictures, using dynamic geometric software where appropriate
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
Create symmetrical patterns, pictures and shapes with and without digital technologies
Identify symmetry in the environment
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

Apply the enlargement transformation to familiar two dimensional shapes and explore the properties of the resulting image compared with the original
Uses appropriate terminology to describe, and symbols to represent, mathematical ideas
Checks the accuracy of a statement and explains the reasoning used
Manipulates, identifies and sketches two- dimensional shapes, including special quadrilaterals, and describes their features
Selects and uses appropriate mental or written strategies, or technology, to solve problems
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
Uses grid maps and directional language to locate positions and follow routes
Measures and estimates lengths in metres, centimetres and millimetres
Identifies angles and classifies them by comparing to a right angle
Visualises, sketches and constructs three-dimensional objects, including prisms and pyramids, making connections to two-dimensional representations
