Content
Two-dimensional spatial structure A
2D shapes: Compare and describe features of two-dimensional shapes
2D shapes: Create two-dimensional shapes that result from combining and splitting common shapes
2D shapes: Compare and describe features of two-dimensional shapes
- Describe and compare two-dimensional shapes, including parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses, squares, trapeziums and kites
- Identify and describe polygons that have parallel sides and those that do not
- Identify quadrilaterals that have all sides equal in length
- Identify right angles in shapes
- Group quadrilaterals using one or more attributes
- Identify lines of symmetry in pictures, artefacts, designs and the environment
- Draw lines of symmetry on given shapes and identify quadrilaterals that do not have lines of symmetry
- Create and record tessellating designs by reflecting, translating and rotating triangles
- Apply and describe amounts of rotation including half-turns, quarter-turns and three-quarter-turns when creating designs
2D shapes: Create two-dimensional shapes that result from combining and splitting common shapes
- Combine common two-dimensional shapes, including quadrilaterals, to form other common shapes or designs
- Split a given shape into 2 or more common shapes and describe the result
- Record the arrangements of common shapes used to create other shapes
- Create and record tessellating designs by reflecting, translating and rotating triangles or quadrilaterals
- Apply and describe amounts of rotation, including half-turns, quarter-turns and three-quarter-turns, when creating designs
