Symmetry

In our maths lessons this morning, we have been looking at symmetry.  A line of symmetry is an invisible line which cuts across a picture or shape.  If the shape or picture is symmetrical, then it will look exactly the same on each side of the line, as if reflected in a mirror.

We have been designing flags which have different lines of symmetry, and using mirrors to check that they are really symmetrical.  We also had a look at an online 'symmetry artist' game, which was great fun.  If you would like to have a go, you can find the link here.
