Know that a square is a rectangle in which the four sides are of equal length

Maths

In this unit pupils will rotate two lines around a fixed point to make different sized angles. They will identify vertices. In the future unit pupils will investigate ways to compose and decompose polygons. They will investigate quadrilaterals with and without parallel and perpendicular sides.

In the prior unit pupils ordered and arranged combinations of objects in patterns and sequences. They consolidated understanding of whole, half, quarter and three-quarter turns, in terms of right angles, using mathematical vocabulary to describe position, direction and movement. In this unit pupils will rotate 2 lines around a fixed point to make different sized angles. They will identify vertices

Right angles

They have exactly two lines of symmetry. 

They have 4 sides that are equal in length.  

Which of these statements are true for all squares?

How many lines of symmetry does a square have?

Look at this pattern. How many squares are there altogether?

Which of these shapes are quadrilaterals?

Which of these shapes are not rectangles?

How many right angles does this shape have?

True or false? This shape has one line of symmetry

How many right angles do these three shapes have in total? 

This lesson will soon be taken down.
