Explore, manipulate and describe features of Loading 

Use the terms ‘Loading ’, ‘Loading ’ and ‘Loading ’ to describe plane (flat) Loading 

Create repeating Loading  with shapes, including two-shape and three-shape Loading 

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 Loading , quadrilaterals, Loading , hexagons and octagons (Reasons about spatial relations)

Recognise that shapes with the same name may have sides of equal or different Loading  (Reasons about spatial relations)

Identify shapes presented in different orientations

Recognise that Loading  or Loading  a shape does not change its size or features (Reasons about spatial relations)

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

Indirectly compare the areas of two Loading  that cannot be moved or Loading 

Predict which of two similar shapes has the larger area and check by covering

Explore area using Loading  informal units to cover the surface in rows or columns without gaps or overlaps

Measure area by selecting and using appropriate uniform informal units (Reasons about relations)

Explain the relationship between the size of a unit and the number of units needed to measure an area (Reasons about relations)

Explain why the area remains Loading  when units are rearranged (Reasons about relations)

Record areas by referring to the number and type of uniform informal unit used

Identify any parts of units left over when counting uniform informal units to measure area

Estimate areas by referring to the number and type of uniform informal unit used and check by measuring
