Lesson 10: Consolidating shape knowledge
Students will create clues to describe different 2D and 3D shapes in a ‘Mystery Box’ activity.
Lesson 9: Constructing 3D shapes
Students will identify and construct 3D shapes using marshmallows and straws and describe their properties.
Lesson 8: Exploring 3D shapes
Students will explore the properties of 3D shapes. They will create shape profiles to identify their properties.
Lesson 7: Identifying lines of symmetry
Students will explore lines of symmetry in shapes and pictures.
Lesson 6: Creating 2D shapes
Students will create 2D shapes using dot boards and describe their properties.
Lesson 5: Identifying 2D shapes
Students will draw, investigate and identify the properties of different 2D shapes.
Lesson 4: Introduction to lines
Students will identify and explore the properties of vertical, horizontal, perpendicular, intersecting and parallel lines. Students will go on a line hunt to identify the different line types.
Lesson 3: Introduction to angles
Students will explore angles such as right angles, obtuse angles and acute angles. They will go on a angle hunt to find and identify different angles.
Lesson 2: Introduction to position and turns
Students will use turns and compass directions to identify a code. They will explore quarter, half, three-quarter and full turns using north, east, south and west to direct the turns. They will use turns and compass directions to identify codes.
Lesson 1: Exploring compass directions
Students will explore compass directions and writing instructions through a fun activity that involves designing a space treasure map.
