Recognise and classify shapes using obvious features
Explore, manipulate and describe features of polygons
Use the terms ‘side’, ‘vertex’ and ‘two-dimensional’ to describe plane (flat) shapes
Create repeating linear patterns with shapes, including two-shape and three-shape patterns
Compare, sort and classify polygons according to the number of sides or vertices
Select and name a shape from a description of its features, identifying triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons and octagons
Recognise that shapes with the same name may have sides of equal or different lengths
Identify shapes presented in different orientations
Transform shapes with slides and reflections
Recognise that sliding or reflecting a shape does not change its size or features
Identify and create a slide (translation) or reflection of a single shape and use the terms ‘slide’ (translation) and ‘reflection’ to describe the movement of the shape
Make designs with symmetry from reflection using paper-folding, mirrors, drawings or paintings
