Activities in this teaching pack include differentiated sets or cards for support, core and extension ability levels to select and create some different patterns by using matching sequences of 2D shapes with matching properties such as the number of sides and vertices or with lines of symmetry.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore and describe some of the patterns that can be made using different sequences of 2D shapes.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to identify, describe and compare different 2D shapes by their matching individual properties including the number of sides, vertices and lines of symmetry. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
