In geometry, an object exhibits symmetry if it looks the same after a transformation, such as reflection or rotation. Symmetry is important in art, math, biology and chemistry.

The Golden Triangle, otherwise called the PPT (People, Process, Technology) framework, was introduced in the 1960s by Harold Leavitt. Many different metaphors have been used to explain it.

Our learning intention for today is to learn about three different types of transformations: translation, rotation, and reflection. We're also going to identify line symmetry.

Translating a shape will not change the size of the shape or rotate it. This triangle has been translated 4 squares to the right and 3 squares down. ... Reflection is a type of transformation.

Find out about the different ways a shape can be transformed, including translation, rotation and reflection, in this primary Bitesize KS2 Science guide.
