Title: Transformations  
Room: 28
Learning Objectives 
Level 3
To be able to explain how to draw lines of symmetry on basic 2D shapes. 
How can you confirm that you have drawn the lines in the correct place?

Level 4
To be able to explain how to find the order of rotational symmetry for 2D shapes.
How can we check the rotational symmetry of a shape?

Level 5
To be able to demonstrate how to reflect a 2D shape in the x-axis or the y-axis.
Can you explain your method for reflecting shapes?
