Draw Translate Shapes
Start here
Focus on translating and reflecting shapes on a grid. Start with “Find Missing Coordinates to Complete a Shape”, then explain the idea in your own words.
Year 6 learners practise translating and reflecting shapes on a grid.
The activities include Find Missing Coordinates to Complete a Shape, Identify Translations on a Grid, Move Shapes on a Grid, and related practice. The checked support below includes video, teaching-practice, practice, worksheet. Open a resource in its provider's website and choose the format that best helps the learner explain the idea independently.
