Ten more and ten less to 100

(0)
What’s included? This download includes one A4, portrait pdf to practise finding ’ten more’ and ’ten less’ than various numbers up to 100. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in year two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details The sheet is organised in half. Looking at finding ‘ten more’ at the top of the sheet and finding ‘ten less’ at the lower part of the sheet. There are eight numbers to find both ten more and ten less than. Two hundred number squares are provided for learners to use as needed to locate the number that is ten more and ten less. A helpful arrow reminder in each half of the sheet is displayed reminding learners to either move directly down from a number (to identify the number which is ten more) and to move directly up from a number (to identify the number which is ten less). There is a clear space to record the number date at the top right of the sheet and for learners to write their name (lower left). Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d love to hear from you!

Measuring length using cm (up to 25cm)

(0)
What’s included? x4 sheets, landscape orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students who need to revisit ‘how to measure objects using cm’ or students needing additional learning support. This resource may be suitable for children in the EYFS. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to give learners an opportunity to practise measuring the length of simple objects/shapes using cm (up to 25cm). How to use it? The first page is an ‘information sheet’ - introducing learners to what a ‘centimetre’ is and what it is used for in images and words. Pages 2 to 4 (numbered 1-3) provide practical opportunity for learners to use the images of the rulers provided to carefully measure the length of each object (image) featured. Page number 1 focuses on ‘stationery’, page number 2 on ‘kitchen items’ and page number 3 on ‘tools’. Page 3 uses the vocabulary ‘longer’ and ‘shorter’ and looks at the difference (in cm) between the longest and shortest tool - which may be a new concept for some learners and so may require some support. Suggestion I would encourage learners to draw a vertical line from the end of each object to the number on the ruler above (using a pencil and ruler!) to be sure of what the total length for each item is. Important… This resource has been designed to provide learners with an opportunity to practice measuring using the images of rulers marked with cm. These rulers are illustrations of rulers and not exact centimetres. It is printed on each sheet that the ‘illustrations in this resource are not to scale’. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d love to hear from you! A review of this resource would be brilliant! Thank you!

What is a millilitre? Introduction with questions

(0)
What’s included? x2 sheets, portrait orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students who need to revisit this or students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to make what a millilitre is visually clear to learners and to give learners an opportunity to count and identify a small amount of millilitres (up to 42) as part of 1000ml (one litre). How to use it? The first page is an ‘information sheet’ - introducing learners to what a ‘millilitre is, that ml is short for millilitre and what millilitres are used/useful for. One thousand squares have been used to visually demonstrate what one thousand ml would look like and that this is equal to one litre. This shows just how small one millilitre is (ccompared to 1000). This may be useful to make the concept of one (or more) millilitres visually clear to learners. The second page also shows one litre/one thousand millilitres visually - as 1000 blue squares and provides learners with the opportunity to count a limited number of ml and write what amount this would be as ml - if the blue squares shown were water. Suggestion When completing the second page of this resource learners may need it to be made clear to them that each number of millilitres (the red, orange, yellow, green and blue squares) is always part of the 1000 blue squares pictured on the whole sheet and not just the 100 blue squares that the orange/yellow/green/blue squares are shown to be a part of. Important… All squares are illustrations of millilitres shown to visually represent water and of course are not exact or equal to actual millilitres. Illustrations in this resource are not to scale. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes. A review of this resource would be brilliant! Thank you!

Introducing tally marks and tallying - Data Handling

(0)
What’s included? This download includes x4 A4, portrait pdf sheets in black and white and colour. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to introduce learners to tallying - how to record tally marks carefully and correctly as well as providing an opportunity to both read and write their own tallies (on page 4). This resource has been created as an introduction to ‘tallying’ prior to working on a data handling activity. Recording accurate tally marks is a key part of data handling and an essential skill to record data correctly. It is important that learners are given an opportunity to practise tallying, ready to use the skill in a real-life activity situation. Resource Details The first x3 pages introduce tallying in a step-by-step way, showing learners what a ‘tally’ is, what it is used for and how to write tally marks correctly to record an accurate amount/score. The last, page 4, provides an opportunity for learners to read five tallies and write the total (up to 23) as well as record the correct number of tallies for five numbers (up to 24). Pages 1 to 3 have been designed for an adult to go through with a learner/group of learners in a step-by-step way. Page 1 Learners are introduced to what ‘tallying’ and a ‘tally mark’ is and how tallies are written. Page one clearly shows how tallies one to four are written and how the fifth tally mark is written differently. Page 2 Learners are introduced to ‘tallies’ being written as groups of five and introduces learners to how to write tally marks up to 10, providing an opportunity for learners to write their own tally marks to 10. Page 3 Learners are introduced to how to write tally marks up to 20, providing an opportunity for learners to write their own tally marks to 10 again - this time beginning at a ‘starting dot’ for each tally and tracing over the grey lines to write the tally marks correctly. Page 4 This has also been designed learners to practise reading and writing tally marks. Learners are to record the total number of tallies (writing the number) and record their own tally marks for each number provided. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a bespoke resource to better suit your needs just let me know - I’d love to hear from you!

Data Handling - Favourite Colour Investigation

(0)
What’s included? This download includes two sets of three A4, portrait pdf sheets ( a black and white AND colour version) to investigate which colour is each pupil’s favourite (designed for a class of 30 - up to 32 spaces available) and handling data linked to this - transferring the information collected to a clear, simple bar chart and answering questions about this. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details There are x3 sheets in total for the B&W or colour set. Page 1 is to be used in landscape orientation (to collect the data using the tally system). Pages 2 and 3 are both to be used in portrait orientation. Page 2 is designed to use the data collected on the tally chart (on page 1) to create a block graph to present this information. Page 3 asks questions related to the data collected and recorded on pages 1 and 2. The ‘colour’ version has been designed to make the meaning even clearer to learners, especially when plotting the bar chart and recording the colour names in answers to the questions on page 3. Spellings for all colours are clearly displayed at the top (of page 3). Page 1 Learners are to ask up to x32 people ‘What is your favourite colour?’ and record each response using the tally system. For learners who are new to/less familiar with 'how to tally’ - tallying is modelled on the right side of page 2. To begin at the top of page 1 is a space to record ‘how many pupils’ are present (in class) that day to question. Once the data has been collected the number of tallies for each colour can be counted. The totals of all colour groups can be added together to check if the same number of people identified as being present and available to ask ‘What is your favourite colour?’ matches the number of tally marks actually recorded. An important lesson in careful, accurate data collection. There is a space for two additional colours to be written if needed (in the boxes on the lower left side of the tally chart). Page 2 Using the information recorded on page 1 learners then transfer this information to the simple, clear bar chart presented on page 2. Learners are to colour the same number of ‘coloured boxes’ for the number of tallies recorded for each favourite colour. There is space on the bar chart for up to 32 people (for each colour group). There is also a space to record the data collected for up to two additonal colours (on the right side of the bar chart) if needed. Page 3 Using the information gathered through completing the activities on pages 1 and 2 the questions on page 3 are related to the number of people recorded as favouriting each colour. There is also an opportunity to practise both reading a tally and recording the correct number this shows and recording a number as a tally. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Doubles to 20 Butterflies WITH recap questions (in order/random order)

Doubles to 20 Butterflies WITH recap questions (in order/random order)

(1)
What’s included? This download includes x 5 sets (each set includes x3 pages) featuring x20 butterflies in black and white AND rainbow versions. Also includes x20 recap questions at the end of every set - these questions are in order and random order (you choose - depending on what best suits your learner/s. This beautiful resource has been carefully designed for early years and pupils in years one and two as well as students needing additional learning support. There are x15 ‘A4’ pages, all portrait orientation. Each set clearly features twenty butterflies and twenty recap questions. Resource layout Each butterfly’s wing shows one part of each double (in ‘dots’) in order/random order up to 20. Learners can complete the other half of each double (by drawing ‘dots’ e.g. with a thick felt pen onto the space on the right wing) and write the total number (of dots) on the line above to complete the sentence e.g. ‘Double 11 is 22.’ Size 22 ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ font makes the text e.g. ‘Double 2 is …’ easy to read and clearly models the process of doubling numbers to 20 to learners. The different designs in order/random order can be used to introduce learners to doubles and/or consolidate learners knowledge of doubles to 20. The x20 recap questions at the end enable learners to consolidate their ‘doubles knowledge’. In the colour version the ‘outline colour’ of each ‘question box’ matches the ‘doubles butterfly’ above providing a visual link for the learner to check back to each corresponding butterfly, if needed, before committing to writing answers in the question boxes at the end. Recommendations I recommend that learners explore the concept of ‘doubling numbers to 20’ practically before recording their learning. Using physical coloured matchsticks or lolly sticks and a sheet of A4 folded/with a line drawn down the centre is a simple way to begin! When using these resources small coloured matchsticks could be placed on top of the butterfly wings each time (for a learner with good fine motor control) to then physically count how many match sticks there are in total before drawing the total number of matching dots (on the right wing) and writing the total number (above). These PDF’s have been designed to print and use as practical write-on resource, they could be laminated to enable reuse and improve durability. The black and white version is a good for photocopying. Useful for… I hope these resources will be useful to range of educators including parents, support workers, additional and special needs assistants, tutors and teachers. Online learning These resources are also ideal to upload and use in on-line classrooms, such as Sherpa.

Counting in 10's to 100 Writing numbers

(1)
What’s included? This pdf download includes x4 pages designed in landscape orientation featuring ten pairs of hands (each showing x10 fingers!) to practise counting up to 100 in 10’s. This resource has been designed in black and white for easy, clear printing. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in Y1 and Y2 as well as students needing additional learning support. This resource may be suitable for some pupils in Reception. Resource layout The simple lay out of pairs of hands, clearly showing ten fingers in each (blank) box is an easy to use (and re-use!) resource. Numbers can be written straight onto the sheet (and wiped off if laminated). Size 40 ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ font makes the numbers easy to read and the simple layout makes the process of counting in 10’s visually clear to young learners. Page 1 The first page has x10 boxes of ten sets of fingers with a large blank space under each image where the learner can write the correct 10’s number. This blank version can also be printed and the adult can write some of the 10’s numbers in, leaving gaps for the learner to write to remaining 10’s numbers in the complete the boxes. If given to a learner as it is (without any numbers written on) this page is the ‘most challenging’ sheet in this set. Page 2 The second page is the same design (x10 boxes of ten sets of fingers with a large blank space under each image where the learner can write the correct 10’s number). On this page the numbers ’10’, ’40’ and ‘100’ are included, leaving x7 number gaps for the learner to complete. With three completed numbers to help this is the ‘least challenging’ sheet in this set.
LOWERCASE Letters - Lines of Symmetry Investigation

LOWERCASE Letters - Lines of Symmetry Investigation

(0)
What’s included? x4 sheets, landscape orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in the early years, years one and two as well as older students who would benefit from investigating the concept of ‘symmetry’ and/or students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to encourage learners to investigate the lines of symmetry for all x26 lowercase letters of the alphabet! How to use it? The resource has been designed for learners to investigate the lines of symmetry by cutting out one letter at a time. Learners can either use a safety mirror and/or fold these squares to investigate where the lines of symmetry are. It is best if learners only ‘cut’ once they are sure they have found a solid line of symmetry - a (safety!) mirror would definitely be helpful as a back up to check especially if letters have already been cut up! Resource Details… Learners will need a pair of scissors each to begin this activity. Page 1. At the top are ‘larger’ lowercase letters, each within a dotted box - these dots guide where to cut. Learners can cut out one of these larger letters at a time (to avoid having lots of letters in front of them at once and risk losing some). Learners will need a pair of scissors each to begin this activity. Along the length of base of the sheet is a set of smaller lowercase letters designed to be cut with two simple snips (vertically up to the red line and then horizontally) to separate these from the sheet one at a time. These are designed to be used to record findings (answers) - on page 2. The larger lowercase letters can go into the bin after they have been cut up, folded and investigated. Page 2. Pupils will need a pencil to their write their name at the base of page 2 and access to a glue stick to continue their investigation using page 2. Once learners have investigated and discovered which letters are symmetrical they can snip and stick the smaller lowercase letters (at the base of page 1) onto either the left or right of page 2 - depending on whether they are/are not symmetrical. If learners are ‘unsure’ there is a space on the left for this also - they can stick letters there and come back to these later, perhaps with support/a mirror to check. Page 3 clearly shows which lowercase letters are/are not symmetrical, this is intended to be a reference sheet for learners once they have completed their investigation. Page 4 also clearly shows which lowercase letters are/are not symmetrical, but in more detail - including where the actual lines of symmetry are. For learners who might find the concept of symmetry difficult they can use page 4 (instead of page 1) and use the lines of symmetry included here to explore for themselves where to fold to investigate ‘symmetry’ with support. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know.
2D shapes for window display

2D shapes for window display

(0)
What’s included? This pdf download includes x5 landscape orientation sheets featuring x23 2D shapes with clear, step-by-step instructions to create colourful acetate/cellophane 2D shapes for (window) display. What’s it for? These 2D shapes have been designed to install and sense of awe and wonder - the shapes look so beautiful when the sun shines through them and where the colour ‘falls’ depends on the position of the shape in relation to the sun which changes as the sun’s position changes. This set gives an opportunity to showcase the whole set of 2D shapes together as a focus to encourage learners to recognise and name each 2D shape and become familiar with recognising and naming them as well as lots of exposure and so time to count the number of sides/corners and think about the properties of each e.g. which have straight/curved sides (or both!). The 2D shapes can of course be repositioned and displayed as you choose. I have also included a ‘2D shapes’ label to be displayed with the set of shapes. This resource would also support work on shadows and light/dark. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students who would appreciate a pop of colour shining through these shapes when the sun comes out! Resource Details The shapes all have a name label which is in the font ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ - size 45. There are x5 pages. The first page includes clear instructions and the remaining pages include the set of shapes and ‘2D Shapes’ word label. 2D Shapes included are - arrow (pointing ‘up’), arrow (pointing ‘down’), semi-circle, ellipse, circle, crescent, oval, triangle, equilateral triangle, right-angled triangle, square, rectangle, rhombus, diamond, trapezium, parallelogram, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, nonagon, decagon, star. Suggestions I recommend printing and making these letters out of white card - paper would be too flimsy and see-through so not effective. A set of coloured acetate/cellophane sheets is needed to make these - these are quite inexpensive on Amazon(!) I recommend also backing every 2D shape in white card so that the coloured acetate/cellophane is concealed - this looks so much nicer on the window and makes each letter stronger however is twice the work and time and to do this, needing x10 sheets of A4 white card - instead of x5 sheets. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a different version if you have an idea just let me know - I’d love to hear from you!

1 - 20 Number Matching Rainbow Dots (Square cards)

(0)
What’s included? This download includes seven A4, portrait pdf sheets to make a number matching set featuring x40 cards (Rainbow Dots to count and numerals from 1 to 20 to match). How to use this resource These square cards are designed to be joined together using a plastic clip/string or ribbon (maybe fastened with velcro for easy opening). The numeral cards (like number fans) can be used in a variety of situations including on-the-carpet questioning with the whole class/smaller groups where pupils can show their answers instead of speaking. However these have been designed to be a counting activity for an individual or group where the square (cards) are already cut up (and hole punched!), shuffled and displayed either loosely on a table top/carpet or already attached on the ring (shuffled or in order). Learners then count the rainbow dots on each card and find the matching numeral (or vice versa!). Once complete (or ‘as they go’ if working ‘in order’) learners can then order the numeral and picture cards together to create a complete set from 1 to 20 or backwards depending on the focus. These could also be used as a reference resource for learners e.g. to help count and order numbers and/or cross-check the correct orientation of individual numbers if unsure when writing. This ‘number match’ set could also be used for a variety of games and to accompany and involve learners during counting rhymes and songs, usable both inside the classroom and outdoors (especially if laminated to improve durability in all types of weather!) Hide and seek match could make a fun game where one half of the set (e.g. all the Rainbow Dot cards or all the numeral cards) are missing and learners need to find them and match them up. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Suggestion I recently purchased some brightly coloured plastic keyrings which can be easily opened by unclipping the plastic (as seen on the main resource image). Alternatively string or thin ribbon would work well. If a small piece of velcro was attached to both ends of string/ribbon with some strong glue this would help learners to be more independent using this resource. Important message… ANY issues with this number match set please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d really love to hear from you! **Feedback of this resource would be wonderful!

2D Shapes Matching Set (Square cards)

(0)
What’s included? This download includes seven A4, portrait pdf sheets to make a 2D shape matching set featuring x36 cards (2D shapes to name, count (the sides of) and match to the correct name). There are x4 cards included which clearly list the pairs of shapes (pictures and names) - these are on page 4 of the download. Learners could use these to help them or refer to them after they have completed the matching activity to see how many they have matched correctly independently. How to use this resource This matching activity has been designed to be an activity for an individual or group where the square (cards) are already cut up (and hole punched!), shuffled and displayed either loosely on a table top/carpet or already attached on the ring. Learners then look at each 2D shape image and (if they are able) name this. Learners can also count the number of sides of each shape and match the picture to the name label to complete the set. Once the set is matched into pairs (images and labels together) learners can then order the pairs from the least number of sides to the most (or vice versa!) 2D shapes included are oval, ellipse, semi circle, circle, triangle, equilateral triangle, right-angled triangle, square, rectangle, trapezium, parallelogram, rhombus, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, nonagon, decagon. This 2D shape matching set could also be used as a reference resource for learners e.g. to help remember the number of sides and/or cross-check the name/spelling of individual shapes if unsure when writing these down. This ‘shape match’ set could also be used for a variety of ways, both inside and outdoors (especially if laminated to improve durability in all types of weather!) Hide and seek match could make a fun game where one half of the set (e.g. all the 2D shape pictures cards or all the name label cards) are missing and learners need to find them and match them up.

Traffic Survey and Block Diagram Activity

(0)
What’s included? This download includes x2 A4, portrait pdf sheets to complete a traffic survey and transfer the information collected to a clear, simple block diagram. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details There are x2 stages to this activity, going out (always with an adult!) to count vehicles for an agreed amount of time and transferring the information collected (during that outing) onto a block diagram. Page 1 Learners are to count the number of vehicles observed passing along a road (from a safe distance and always with adult supervision!) The types of vehicles included on the recording sheet are cars, vans, buses, trucks/lorries, bicycles, motorbikes, pedestrians. If these do not include a type of vehicle you would like - I am happy to create this resource for you. Just let me know what changes you would like and I will create this for you (for free!) Page 2 Using the information recorded on page 1 learners then transfer this information to the simple, clear block diagram. The vehicles listed on the ‘traffic survey’ sheet are included in the same order here to assist the process of transferring this information. Learners can colour the same number of ‘coloured boxes for each group of vehicles counted. There is space on the bar chart for up to 12 vehicles (for each vehicle group). For vehicle groups with more than 12 vehicles counted learners should colour up to 12 …as this indicates ‘12+’. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a bespoke resource to better suit your needs just let me know - I’d love to hear from you!

1 - 20 Number Matching Vehicles (Circle cards)

(0)
What’s included? This download includes seven A4, portrait pdf sheets to make a number matching set featuring x40 cards (Various vehicles to count and numerals from 1 to 20 to match). How to use this resource These circles are designed to be joined together using a plastic clip/string or ribbon. The numeral cards (like number fans) can be used in a variety of situations including on-the-carpet questioning with the whole class/smaller groups where pupils can show their answers instead of speaking. However these have been designed to be a counting activity for an individual or group where circles are cut up, shuffled and displayed either loosely on a table top/carpet or already attached on the ring (shuffled or in order). Learners then count the numbers of (different) vehicles on each card and find the matching numeral (or vice versa!). Once complete (or ‘as they go’ if working ‘in order’) learners can then order the numeral and picture cards together to create a complete set from 1 to 20 or backwards depending on the focus. These could also be used as a reference resource for learners e.g. to help count and order numbers and/or cross-check the correct orientation of individual numbers if unsure when writing. This ‘number match’ set could also be used for a variety of games and to accompany and involve learners during counting rhymes and songs, usable both inside the classroom and outdoors (especially if laminated to improve durability in all types of weather!) Hide and seek match could make a fun game where one half of the set (e.g. all the vehicle cards or all the numeral cards) are missing and learners need to find them and match them up. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Suggestion I recently purchased some brightly coloured plastic keyrings which can be easily opened by unclipping the plastic (as seen on the main resource image). These could be ideal where you wish learners to access the contents of the ring e.g. to order the numbers and come in a variety of colours. Alternatively string or thin ribbon would work well. If a small piece of velcro was attached to both ends of string/ribbon with some strong glue this would help learners to be more independent using this resource. Important message… ANY issues with this number match set please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d really love to hear from you! **Feedback of this resource would be wonderful!

2D Shapes Matching Set (Circle cards)

(0)
What’s included? This download includes seven A4, portrait pdf sheets to make a 2D shape matching set featuring x36 cards (2D shapes to name, count (the sides of) and match to the correct name). There are x4 cards included which clearly list the pairs of shapes (pictures and names) - these are on page 4 of the download. Learners could use these to help them or refer to them after they have completed the matching activity to see how many they have matched correctly independently. How to use this resource This matching activity has been designed to be an activity for an individual or group where the circles are cut up, shuffled and displayed either loosely on a table top/carpet or already attached on the ring. Learners then look at each 2D shape image and (if they are able) name this. Learners can also count the number of sides of each shape and match the picture to the name label to complete the set. Once the set is matched into pairs (images and labels together) learners can then order the pairs from the least number of sides to the most (or vice versa!) 2D shapes included are oval, ellipse, semi circle, circle, triangle, equilateral triangle, right-angled triangle, square, rectangle, trapezium, parallelogram, rhombus, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, nonagon, decagon. This 2D shape matching set could also be used as a reference resource for learners e.g. to help remember the number of sides and/or cross-check the name/spelling of individual shapes if unsure when writing these down. This ‘shape match’ set could also be used for a variety of ways, both inside and outdoors (especially if laminated to improve durability in all types of weather!) Hide and seek match could make a fun game where one half of the set (e.g. all the 2D shape pictures cards or all the name label cards) are missing and learners need to find them and match them up. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support.

Lines of Symmetry Investigation Alphabet Capital Letters

Lines of Symmetry Investigation Alphabet Capital Letters

(0)
What’s included? x4 sheets, landscape orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in the early years, years one and two as well as older students who would benefit from investigating the concept of ‘symmetry’ and ‘symmetrical’ or students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to encourage learners to investigate the lines of symmetry for all x26 capital letters of the alphabet! This also provides an opportunity to explore capital letters which in turn should help with letter recognition for younger learners or those who would benefit with becoming more familiar with shape and features unique to each capital letter. How to use it? The resource has been designed for learners to investigate the lines of symmetry by cutting out one letter at a time. Learners can either use a safety mirror and/or fold these squares to investigate where the lines of symmetry are. It is best if learners only ‘cut’ once they are sure they have found a solid line of symmetry - a (safety!) mirror would definitely be helpful as a back up to check especially if letters have already been cut up! Resource Details… Learners will need a pair of scissors each to begin this activity. Page 1. At the top are ‘larger’ capital letters, each within a dotted box - these dots guide where to cut. Learners can cut out one of these larger letters at a time (to avoid having lots of letters in front of them at once and risk losing some). Learners will need a pair of scissors each to begin this activity. Along the length of base side of the sheet is a set of smaller capital letters designed to be cut with two simple snips (vertically up to the red line and then horizontally) to separate these from the sheet one at a time. These are designed to be used to record findings (answers) - on page 2. The larger capital letters can go into the bin after they have been cut up, folded and investigated. Page 2. Pupils will need a pencil to their write their name at the base of page 2 and access to a glue stick to continue their investigation using page 2. Once learners have investigated and discovered which letters are symmetrical they can snip and stick the smaller capital letters (at the base of page 1) onto either the left or right of page 2 - depending on whether they are/are not symmetrical. Page 3 clearly shows which capital letters are/are not symmetrical, this is intended to be a reference sheet for learners once they have completed their investigation. Page 4 also clearly shows which capital letters are/are not symmetrical, but in more detail - including where the actual lines of symmetry are. For learners who might find the concept of symmetry difficult they can use page 4 (instead of page 1) to explore for themselves where to fold to investigate ‘symmetry’ with support. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know.
