Shape Match
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to identify, select and record different 2D shapes that match a range of properties including side perimeters, parallel lines and lines of symmetry.
The class can name and list special vocabulary words that can be used to describe the matched 2D shapes by their individual properties.
Download this teaching pack including classroom activities and an interactive presentation to teach the children to identify, select and record different 2D shapes that match a range of properties including side perimeters, parallel lines and lines of symmetry
Activities in this teaching pack include differentiated sets of cards to select and record a range of different 2D shapes to match properties including perimeters for support ability levels, parallel lines for core ability levels and lines of symmetry for extension ability levels.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to select and record a range of different 2D shapes to match properties including perimeters, parallel lines and symmetry.
This lesson can support development in learning how to differentiate between shapes by their matching properties. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and an interactive presentation to introduce concepts and key skills.

Shape Locations
Explain and model how to record and change the co-ordinate positions of some different geometric shapes using translation and reflection movements in the first quadrant.
-
Shape Symmetry
Explore, record and compare the matching lines of symmetry that can be found in a range of different geometric shapes as part of their individual properties
