What to Focus On

  • Reflection symmetry means one half matches the other half exactly.
  • A line of symmetry can be vertical or horizontal.
  • Letter A has a vertical line of symmetry.
  • Rotational symmetry means a shape looks the same after a turn.
  • Dots are used to track orientation during turning.
  • A firki is a paper craft used to show rotational symmetry.
  • Digits and letters can have reflection symmetry.
  • Digits and letters can have rotational symmetry.
  • Some shapes have both symmetries.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A shape that looks neat must have both reflection symmetry and rotational symmetry.

Any letter that can be folded in half has rotational symmetry too.

Letter A and letter H have the same kind of symmetry.
