2D shapes KS1/First Level Anchor Charts

Shape, Position and Movement KS1/First Level Anchor Chart Bundle

A bright and comprehensive collection of 48 Shape, Position and Movement Anchor Charts designed for pupils working within First Level Curriculum for Excellence. This colourful, child-friendly bundle brings together 6 complete maths topics, covering 2D Shapes, 3D Shapes, Symmetry, Position & Movement, Turns & Angles, and Maps & Directions. The posters support pupils in recognising and describing shapes, exploring their properties, understanding symmetry, using positional and directional language, following routes, navigating maps and grids, and developing an understanding of turns and angles. Each anchor chart uses clear explanations, colourful visual examples, key mathematical vocabulary and practical real-life connections, making the bundle ideal for maths working walls, classroom displays, whole-class teaching and independent pupil reference.
