LO: To reflect shapes across a horizontal or vertical mirror line.

KEY QUESTION: DO I NEED TO USE A MIRROR TO REFLECT A 2D SHAPE?

Review the term reflection with the children. How would the children reflect a simple shape like a square across a mirror line? Show the children a more complex shape. How would the children go about reflecting this shape?

Explore the use of a mirror using a large version of a shape on the working wall. If you hadn’t got access to a mirror, how would you go reflect the shape?

Focus on process of identifying vertices within shapes, counting to the mirror line.

LO: To draw and reflect a shape across a 45 degree mirror line.
Show the children a shape and have them model how to reflect across a vertical and horizontal mirror line. Show them a mirror line that is set at 45 degrees. Discuss possible strategies for carrying out the task of reflecting across the mirror line. Make sure the children stay on the grid lines and follow to the mirror line, then away from the mirror line to make a right angle.

LO: To reflect a shape that crossing a 45˚ mirror line.
KEY QUESTION: HOW CAN I REFLECT A SHAPE THAT CROSSES THE MIRROR LINE?

Address misconceptions from previous lesson. Give the children an enlarged version of a triangle that crosses a diagonal mirror line. As a class, identify way in which the shape can be reflected across the mirror line. Take each point and reflect across a perpendicular set of gridlines. Model the use of start and end points. Whatever is in the upper part of the mirror line needs to be in the lower, vice versa.
