What's included?
Targeted Year 4 resources for pupils to describe translations on a grid, applying directional language and coordinate geometry, a core KS2 Maths objective. Activities build conceptual understanding of sliding a shape without rotation or reflection and promote reasoning in quantifying the movement (left/right, up/down). This essential small step supports mastery of geometry and is vital for meeting national curriculum expectations. The CS Maths Scheme provides structured grid tasks.
