Lesson Two – Shape Reflections

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise reflecting and recording the position of a range of different geometric shapes across horizontal, vertical and diagonal mirror lines in the first quadrant.
The class can identify and list the different sets of matching co-ordinates to indicate the co-ordinate positions of the matching vertices for each of the reflected shapes.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise reflecting and recording the position of a range of different geometric shapes across horizontal, vertical and diagonal mirror lines in the first quadrant
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of differentiated worksheets for support, core and extension ability levels to identify and record how to reflect some different geometric shapes across horizontal, vertical and diagonal mirror lines when indicating their matching sets of co-ordinates.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to reflect a range of different shapes across horizontal, vertical and diagonal mirror lines in the first quadrant.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to 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. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
