A fun activity for your students when studying geometry or cultural celebrations such as Diwali (The Festival of Lights). Students use the grid lines and lines of symmetry to help them draw the pattern in the other sections of the circle. The lines are light grey and they will become less visible after colouring. Included: ♦ 3 different patterns ♦ Blank template (students can make up their own pattern) For each of the 3 patterns: ♦ student template with grid lines. ♦ completed student template (great as a reference during the lesson). ♦ the pattern without the grid lines (could be used as a simple colouring activity if desired). An example of what is included for each of the 3 patterns is included in the images. Provided in 2 different paper sizes: ♦ A4 size paper ♦ Letter size paper Make ... colour ... cut ... display The blank template includes: grid lines, lines of symmetry, outer circle. © Suzanne Welch Teaching Resources

A 22 slide PPT that introduces symmetry in nature and then moves on to describe symmetry in pictures, patterns and shapes. I used it in parts over a series of lessons. The presentation is animated and interactive, my class displayed crosses or ticks on whiteboards to indicate if images were symmetrical or not. Very comprehensive, just click and teach.

Lower, middle and higher ability worksheets. Colouring in the symmetrical pattern. Extension task with 4 quadrants and a draw your own grid. Suitable for Lower KS2 or SEN Upper KS2.

This is a fun activity where children cut and stick the wings onto the ladybirds so that their spots are symmetrical.

Children are to complete the shape along the line of symmetry. This is aimed at a mixed ability year 3 class. There are 2 sheets for differentiation within the document. Hope its useful! Topics also included: reflective symmetry.

This completely animated PowerPoint works through the four transformations with examples to help visually. I used one part per lesson along with Tristanjones worksheets (they are amazing). It could also be used to as a quick revision run through. Includes: Reflection, (standard and diagonal) Order of rotation, Center of rotation, Degrees of rotation, Vectors, Translation, Enlargement with and without a center of enlargement, Fractional enlargement, Negative enlargement. The front page is hyperlinked to the different transformations and then each back to the pain page. All animations works of the click of a mouse.

An introductory worksheet designed for children working at level 2 or 3 of the national curriculum or for older children to revise from. Children shade in the squares to reflect the pattern at the other side of the “mirror”. Topics also included: understanding space and shape; Reflective symmetry.

There are 10 dog drawings in this set SYMMETRY DRAWING is perfect for: teaching how to use a ruler fine motor skills control teaching symmetry in a fun way. You can use the images for: -Maths lessons -Morning challenge / Wellbeing sessions -Art lessons -Team Building Day You will need: a pencil a ruler colouring pencils (optional) Have fun!

Rotational Symmetry Art Activity. This fun activity produces fantastic designs that your students will be super proud of. Each template has rotational symmetry of order 6 and is on isometric dot paper. Your students simply add more lines (ensuring each line is done 6 times to keep it symmetrical), using the dots to maintain accuracy. When your students are happy with their final design they can colour it in using symmetrical colouring. Afterwards, your students may wish to cut their design out and use it in another piece of artwork. For example, adding a stem and leaves to turn it into a flower. Plain isometric dot paper has also been provided as a basis for your students to create their own rotational symmetry design from scratch. Provided as two separate files – A4 paper size and Letter paper size. What you get: • 30 templates on isometric dot paper • Poster explaining rotational symmetry • Isometric dot paper (plain) • Teacher notes © Suzanne Welch Teaching Resources

Originally designed for Key Stage 2 (KS2) Year 4 / Year 5 (Y4 and Y5) - or Second Level Primary 5 and 6 in Scotland - but may suit older classes for revision. Ideal as a challenge for early finishers. Symmetrical shapes such as squares, rectangles, other quadrilaterals, triangles, pentagons, hexagons and other polygons (regular and irregular) are included, plus shapes that are non-symmetrical. PDF format. Colour and black and white versions included.   SAVE as part of this Angles and Symmetry Activities BUNDLE   Print and laminate for repeated use Consider using different coloured card for additional sets so as not to muddle them up You might want to enlarge board to A3 if using with larger groups Teacher’s notes and student instruction cards included The cards can be used on their own too, with students working in pairs on a pile and self-checking with the answer card To differentiate for less able learners, provide mirrors Students could also draw lines of symmetry onto laminated cards using a dry-wipe pen to see if they would reflect in them   MORE KS2 MATHS ACTIVITIES… Angles Activities BUNDLE Area and Perimeter Activities BUNDLE Maths Word Problems Year 5 / 6 BUNDLE Maths Puzzles Worksheets (Fun KS2 Challenges) BUNDLE Mental Maths Activities Year 5 /6 BUNDLE Money Games BUNDLE Multiplication and Division Activities BUNDLE Place Value Activities BUNDLE Please explore more at FullShelf Resources

In this resource pack you will find: Lesson plans (including for your TA), differentiated worksheets/activities (LA, MA and HA plus a challenge activity for deeper understanding/mastery), two mini assessments, answer sheets for all activities and flipcharts for whole class teaching (in ActivInspire, PowerPoint and PDF format). This pack will save you hours and hours of planning, resourcing, differentiating, finding challenging activities, making assessments and generating flipcharts all for an amazing price. In addition, resources are uploaded in both PDF and Word format so that they can be edited to suit your needs. NOTE: Just used this unit myself, and all but 1 child in my class exceeded the objectives! Lesson 1 involves the children identifying whether a line of symmetry is correct or incorrect and then challenged by drawing in the correct or missing lines. Lesson 2 involves the children drawing all of the lines of symmetry on to 2D shapes including complex polygons as well as regular shapes. Extension activity involves the children investigating symmetry in the alphabet. Lesson 3 involves the children identifying and drawing lines of symmetry into patterns/designs. The challenge activity: identifying a reflected pattern. Lesson 4 involves the children completing symmetrical figures by reflecting across a mirror-line. The challenge activity: Complete a symmetrical figure on various different types of grids and questions for deeper understanding. Lesson 5 involves the children completing symmetrical patterns by reflecting across a mirror-line. The challenge activity: Questions to encourage deeper thinking - solving symmetry problems. ALSO INCLUDED: Two mini-assessments for the two learning objectives. Objectives covered in unit of work: Identify lines of symmetry in 2-D shapes presented in different orientations Complete a simple symmetric figure with respect to a specific line of symmetry The pack can be purchased on a lesson by lesson basis if preferred!
