Position and Direction
Set 697704The triangle is reflected in the dashed mirror line. What are the coordinates of the reflection of corner A?
Look at the map. In which direction is the Shop from the Gate?
What it practises
Position and direction: reading and plotting coordinates in all four quadrants, translating and reflecting shapes on a grid, and using compass points and turns.
How to solve them
For coordinates, go along the corridor and then up the stairs: x first, then y. For a reflection, count how far each corner is from the mirror line and go the same distance on the other side.
How to use it
Print the questions and keep the answers page to one side. Allow about 15 minutes, then mark it together and talk through anything that went wrong using the explanations. Move up a level once your child gets most of them right.
