NOTE: Just used this unit myself, and all but 1 child in my class exceeded the objectives!
Lesson 1 involves the children identifying whether a line of symmetry is correct or incorrect and then challenged by drawing in the correct or missing lines.
Lesson 2 involves the children drawing all of the lines of symmetry on to 2D shapes including complex polygons as well as regular shapes. Extension activity involves the children investigating symmetry in the alphabet.
Lesson 3 involves the children identifying and drawing lines of symmetry into patterns/designs. The challenge activity: identifying a reflected pattern.
Lesson 4 involves the children completing symmetrical figures by reflecting across a mirror-line. The challenge activity: Complete a symmetrical figure on various different types of grids and questions for deeper understanding.
Lesson 5 involves the children completing symmetrical patterns by reflecting across a mirror-line. The challenge activity: Questions to encourage deeper thinking - solving symmetry problems.
ALSO INCLUDED: Two mini-assessments for the two learning objectives.
Objectives covered in unit of work:
Identify lines of symmetry in 2-D shapes presented in different orientations
Complete a simple symmetric figure with respect to a specific line of symmetry

This is a collection of mental maths papers for Year 4. The spreadsheet includes four sheets differentiated four ways (LA, MA, HA and Challenge) and includes answer sheets. What makes these different to other published mental maths material, is that each sheet can be randomised by simply pushing F9 on your keyboard, so there are almost an unlimited combination of questions for each paper. This means they can be used as often as you like with very little repetition. Use them daily, weekly, termly or as you wish. Use them for early bird, homework or to regularly assess the children's mental computation. Also included on the sheet is a record sheet if you wish to track pupil progress - simply fill in the names and record the results in the grid (scores will be colour coded for easy analysis). The previews represent just a fraction of the sheets that can be produced!
