Shape Turns

This maths scheme of work for Key Stage One gets the children to explain and model how a range of 2D shapes can change positions when rotated using different fraction values. The class can illustrate how to turn shapes using half and quarter rotations.

Half Turns
Explore and record how to identify and demonstrate the position of some different 2D shapes after they have been rotated by a half turn

Quarter Turns
Explore and record how to identify and demonstrate the position of some different 2D shapes after they have been rotated by a quarter turn

Fraction Turns
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
