Complete Symmetrical Pictures (2)

EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

A symmetry activity where students complete symmetrical shapes and create their own symmetrical design. Designed for middle and upper years students.

Learning Objectives:

  • Recognise and complete symmetrical shapes.
  • Develop spatial awareness and drawing accuracy.
  • Explore symmetry through a creative challenge.

How the Activity Works:

Students are given half-drawn symmetrical shapes and must complete the missing half using the line of symmetry as a guide. The final task encourages creativity by having students draw their own half-shape along a symmetry line, which they can complete themselves or challenge a partner to finish.
