Maths- Slide, Flip and Turn.





Today we looked at sliding , flipping and turning.
We started by asking "What do we already know about slide, flip and turn?"
We wrote our responses on sticky notes to then look at it again later on to see how much we have learnt.
Miss Shaw showed us the three ways we can move objects, then we completed a couple of activities to help us remember and get better at sliding , flipping and turning.
We then chose an object from the foam shape container and traced it onto paper. We then slid it along the paper and retraced it, to show how it moved. We then either chose turn or flip as our second option and also showed that on a sheet of paper.
The year 4 kids also looked at rotation, translation, and reflection.

Here are some online games to help you get better Room 9
