If a full turn is made, the object will be in the same position as it started. Is Che correct? Yes, objects will be in the same position as they started if a full turn is made.
What do you notice about this object when a full turn and a half turn is made? The frame will look the same as it will be in the same position.
Lesson 2 Step: Describe position (1) (Practical)
Fluency Outdoor practical: Mark your grid with chalk and write a route for your partner to follow. Write your route and record it on a grid. Word Bank: up down left right
Reasoning Spot the mistake in the route to get from the start position to the end position. Up Up Left Left Up Up Right Right END START
Problem solving How many different routes can you find to get from the start to the end position? START END
Problem solving How many different routes can you find? X What is the shortest route?
Lesson 3 Step: Describe position (1)
