Rotation
This SMILE resource contains one pack of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of rotation.
Rotation contains thirteen work cards with a wide variety of activities requiring students to explore turning patterns, complete patterns made by rotating a shape, link angles to points of the compass, complete a rotation jigsaw, find the centre of rotation, identify rotational symmetry, investigate the effects of rotation on sets of coordinates, use matrices to perform rotations, and combine rotations.
SMILE (Secondary Mathematics Individualised Learning Experiment) was initially developed as a series of practical activities for secondary school students by practising teachers in the 1970s. It became a complete individualised scheme based around a network of activity cards and assessments.
Related resources include answers to all of the cards and test books and answers.
