This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to explore and record how to identify and demonstrate the position of some different 2D shapes after they have been rotated by a half or quarter turn.

The class can select and make examples of some special shapes to model how they can change position after being rotated and turned to match a specific fraction value.

Download this teaching pack including classroom activities and an interactive presentation to explore and record how to identify and demonstrate the position of some different 2D shapes after they have been rotated by a half or quarter turn

Activities in this teaching pack include a set of worksheets to identify and match different pairs of shapes that have been rotated by a half or quarter turn and a template to model and record changes to some special 2D shapes following each of the selected rotations.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to identify and record the position of different shapes after making a half or quarter turn rotation to change their positions.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to explain and model how a range of 2D shapes can change positions when rotated using different fraction values. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
