Inspire curiosity and challenge children's understanding with this Year 4 Complete a Symmetric Figure Discussion Problem. This resource includes two open-ended problems for children to put their knowledge to the test. Each question has various outcomes, so they can be used multiple times. We'd recommend children tackling these in pairs or small groups to encourage mathematical discussions, or they could try them out individually once they have a good understanding of the objectives covered in this lesson.

Great as a challenge activity or display one problem at a time on the screen and open up the discussion to the whole class. An example answer for both questions is provided. This allows children to compare their answers, and it can be a great talking point to address any misconceptions too.
