![]() ![]() Also opposite anglesĪre equal (angles "A" are the same, and angles "B" The ParallelogramĪ parallelogram has opposite sides parallel and equal in length. In other words they "bisect" (cut in half) each other at right angles.Ī rhombus is sometimes called a rhomb or a diamond. The RhombusĪ rhombus is a four-sided shape where all sides have equal length (marked "s").Īlso opposite sides are parallel and opposite angles are equal.Īnother interesting thing is that the diagonals (dashed lines) meet in the middle at a right angle. The SquareĪ square has equal sides (marked "s") and every angle is a right angle (90°)Ī square also fits the definition of a rectangle (all angles are 90°), and a rhombus (all sides are equal length). The little squares in each corner mean "right angle"Ī rectangle is a four-sided shape where every angle is a right angle (90°).Īlso opposite sides are parallel and of equal length. Let us look at each type in turn: The Rectangle Some types are also included in the definition of other types! For example a square, rhombus and rectangle are also parallelograms. There are special types of quadrilateral: They should add to 360° Types of Quadrilaterals Try drawing a quadrilateral, and measure the angles. interior angles that add to 360 degrees:.– I can use creative materials safely and with some control under supervision.(Also see this on Interactive Quadrilaterals) Properties – I am beginning to demonstrate resilience and flexibility in approaching creative challenges. – I am beginning to apply techniques in my creative work with guidance and direction. – I can give and accept feedback as both artist and audience.Ĭreating combines skills and knowledge, drawing on the senses, inspiration and imagination. ![]() Responding and reflecting, both as artist and audience, is a fundamental part of learning in the expressive arts. – I can explore how and why creative work is made by asking questions and developing my own answers. – I have explored the concept of rotation and I am beginning to use simple fractions of a complete rotation to describe turns.Įxploring the expressive arts is essential to developing artistic skills and knowledge and it enables learners to become curious and creative individuals. – I have explored reflective symmetry in a range of contexts and I can discuss it as a property of shapes and images. – I have explored two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes and their properties in a range of contexts. Geometry focuses on relationships involving shape, space and position, and measurement focuses on quantifying phenomena in the physical world. It is designed for CfE Level 1 / KS 1 students / National Curriculum Wales Foundation Phase Yrs 1 & 2, but can also be adapted for younger age groups. The resource can be used together as a lesson plan or as individual components to integrate into your own scheme of work. Teachers' guidance notes are included as well as activity ideas for exploring shapes. The questions and discussion suggestions are voiced directly to students, allowing the resource to be easily presented to the class. This Maths and Art and Design resource offers a series of teacher-led, whole class or group activities. explore and discuss where we can see shapes around us in everyday life.find out about the properties of 2D shapes.learn to recognise and describe common shapes.Through whole class discussion and activities students will: This resource provides an introduction to common 2D shapes and their properties using artworks. How many sides does a hexagon have? What is the strongest shape? Where can we see shapes around us?
