Maths-Daily	SYMMETRY For Maths  we are going  to explore symmetry.  You may need a small mirror if you have one  and if you don’t you can hold up objects to a mirror. We  are going to explore shapes and pictures and classify these as having a line of symmetry or No line of symmetry. Line Symmetry means that the object is the same on both sides. We are going to make a chart like this. Keep this somewhere safe so you can add to it. You can draw the objects or write. Line of Symmetry No line of Symmetry       Look on Seesaw for the shapes. Once again, you may need to print out the sheet or carefully draw shapes onto a piece of paper. Fold each shape. The fold line that creates exactly the same halves side by side is the special line we will be looking for this week. It’s called a Line of Symmetry.   Can you find different shapes around your house? Does a circle have symmetry? What about a door? A table? If so, add it to your chart as having a line of symmetry. Remember if you use a fold line or a mirror the object or picture will be the same on both sides if it has a Line of Symmetry. Try these: Tin of Spaghetti (It’s a Cylinder), Placemat, Coaster, Blanket. What other shapes can you find? Add them to your chart.
