Properties of Shapes
Pupils draw shapes and nets accurately, using measuring tools and conventional markings and labels for lines and angles. Pupils describe the properties of shapes and explain how unknown angles and lengths can be derived from known measurements. These relationships might be expressed algebraically for example, d = 2 x r; a = 180 - (b + c)
-
Recognise, describe and build simple 3-D shapes, including making nets
Examples
-
Compare and classify geometric shapes based on their properties and sizes and find unknown angles in any triangles, quadrilaterals, and regular polygons
Examples
-
Recognise angles where they meet at a point, are on a straight line, or are vertically opposite, and find missing angles
Examples
-
Recognise, describe and build simple 3-D shapes, including making nets

Position & Direction
Pupils draw and label a pair of axes in all four quadrants with equal scaling. This extends their knowledge of one quadrant to all four quadrants, including the use of negative numbers. Pupils draw and label rectangles (including squares), parallelograms and rhombuses, specified by coordinates in the four quadrants, predicting missing coordinates using the properties of shapes. These might be expressed algebraically for example, translating vertex (a, b) to (a - 2, b + 3); (a, b) and (a + d, b + d) being opposite vertices of a square of side d.
