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 pack is made up of 18 different animal symmetry drawing templates. On each page is half of a particular animal. The task for the children is to sketch out and optionally colour the other half of the animal. Tip: Have the children fold the paper down the middle so that they can trace the outline and main features of the animal. Please see the preview to get a better idea.

A nice introduction to reflective symmetry. Suitable for all ages. Fully editable.

A power point presentation showing lines of symmetry for various basic shape. Suitable for introducing the concept of symmetry. 35 slides. A brief explanation is included.

Some activities to help children explore and understand rotational symmetry with familiar 2D shapes. Included in this resource is: Rotational Symmetry Worksheet featuring 2 circle protractors and a grid for children to complete the shape name, angle of rotation and order of rotational. Children will also need the Rotational Shapes Sheet to cut out and attach to their protractors with a split pin. We used black shapes and glued these to the sheets before using a coloured set to rotate on the pin. These sheets are available in white, black and coloured. If you don’t want to print these, children could trace around a set of shapes you have in the classroom. Children rotate the shape to measure the angle of rotation and work out how many rotations can be completed to bring the shape to its original position. To follow this, is the Blank Circle Template, which children can use to create their own circular rotational pattern.

These are a series of worksheets and information I have collated into a full project. The theme of the project is MASKS & IDENTITY Within the project, there are a number of mini sections relating to different mask types. I have uploaded these individually (see below) as they are perfect for cover / homework / one off lessons. I will also upload the full project once I have added the finishing touches. Available worksheets: Artists - Cindy Sherman / Marcus Coates / Haus-Rucker-Co Cultural Map Day of the Dead Drill Music Festima Filipino Dinagyang Halloween Music Superheroes Symmetry Venetian Carnival Each upload contains a PowerPoint and PDF. I created the resources on a MacBook and sometimes Windows PowerPoint can open the fonts and formatting slightly off, so I wanted to offer both versions! You can also edit the PowerPoint to make it suitable for the students you teach. Please feel free to ask any questions

A fun Upper Primary maths game for line symmetry in 2D shapes: Contains a set of 54 shape cards for consolidation of lines of symmetry through fun activities such as snap, pairs and by using the game board that is also included (self-checking – answer card included). 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

A lesson which has been differentiated three ways to teach year 1 children about symmetry. The pack includes a powerpoint, a plan, three different differentiated activities and next steps for the year 1 children to complete.

Three levels of difficulty ranging from basic shapes with vertical reflection to more complex shapes with diagonal reflection.

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.

Students very quickly understand the concepts of reflections, rotations and symmetry when creating rangoli patterns. I always use this before starting the Transformations topic. Powerpoint and worksheets guide students step by step in creating these patterns.

Worksheet/practice paper, up to level 5.

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

Symmetry, KS3 Lines of Symmetry

Which flags are symmetrical? A nice presentation to demonstrate symmetry. Fully editable and ideal for 7+ (depending on ability).

This resource is proven to be a really good resource to supplement the concept of lines of symmetry at Year 3/4 or a simplification for that of Year 5/6.

Direct link to our Y4 scheme.

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.

PowerPoint presentation that provides an explanation of symmetry. Paper-folding activity in which pupils mark lines of symmetry on shapes with PowerPoint slides that show the lines of symmetry on each shape for children to use to mark/peer mark. Success criteria too. Suitable from year 3 onwards.

Differentiated symmetry activities. Used in a year 1 classroom.
