Symmetry game for kids: mirror the pattern
Half of a pattern is drawn on a grid. Your child places its mirror image on the other side of the line, discovering line symmetry by doing rather than by reading.
What your child practises
- Understanding line symmetry
- Finding positions on a grid
- Reproducing a shape as a mirror image
Fits work on line symmetry in primary school and the first years of secondary.
How to play
There is a line down the middle. Place the squares on the other side, like in a mirror, then confirm.
