National Curriculum Objectives

Mathematics Year 6: (6P2) Draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes

Mathematics Year 6: (6P3) Describe positions on the full coordinate grid (all four quadrants)

Differentiation:
Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support translating regular shapes with up to four sides in all four quadrants. Including one movement per translation.
Expected Questions to support translating shapes with up to four sides in all four quadrants where some shapes may be irregular. Including up to two movements per translation.
Greater Depth Questions to support translating shapes with up to six sides in all four quadrants where some shapes may be irregular. Including two movements per translation and grids of varying scales with some points plotted between increments.

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Problem Solving)
Developing Identify regular shapes (with up to four sides) translated across four quadrants. One translation with one movement.
Expected Identify quadrilaterals translated across four quadrants. One translation with two movements per translation.
Greater Depth Identify shapes with up to 6 sides translated across four quadrants. One translation with two movements per translation. Includes plots between increments.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Problem Solving)
Developing Identify coordinates of regular shapes (with up to four sides) translated across four quadrants. One movement per translation.
Expected Identify coordinates of quadrilaterals translated across four quadrants. Two movements per translation.
Greater Depth Identify coordinates of shapes (with up to six sides) translated across up to four quadrants. Includes plots between increments.

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning)
Developing Explain the position of regular shapes (with up to four sides) translated by a single movement across four quadrants.
Expected Explain the position of a quadrilateral translated by two movements across four quadrants.
Greater Depth Explain the position of shapes (with up to six sides) translated by two movements across four quadrants. Includes plots between increments.
