2-D shapes (age 8+)

二维图形(8岁以上)

Description

Identify lines of symmetry in 2-D shapes presented in different orientations; recognise line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry

Mastery Evidence
  • Find all lines of symmetry in a rectangle, square, and equilateral triangle
  • Determine whether a given shape has a line of symmetry when rotated
  • Identify which shapes in a set have exactly one line of symmetry
  • Determine how many lines of symmetry a regular hexagon has
  • Draw all lines of symmetry for a given figure
  • Identify which figures from a set are not line-symmetric
Assessment Prompt

If your child is given a picture of a butterfly or a star shape, can they draw the line (or lines) where you could fold it exactly in half so both sides match?
