Properties of 2D shapes - lines of symmetry and right angles

This week we have been looking at Properties of 2D shapes.

First we used a mirror to find lines of symmetry in shapes.

Then we learnt that a right angle is a quarter turn and that 2 right angles make a half turn. Some of us even knew that a right angle is 90°!

We made right angle monsters and went for a hunt for right angles around the classroom. After that we looked to see which shapes have right angles or if the angle was greater or less than a right angle.

These were practical lessons to build on our inspire focuses.
