Students will use this workpage to explore the idea of symmetry. This is a lot more interactive and efficient compared to using paper because the students can move as many points around and see the effect it makes instantly.

What happens when you move a point on the page?[br]Why do you think this happens?[br]Where do you think the line of symmetry is?[br]Does the points ever cross over the line of symmetry?

Do you think that all shapes have symmetry?[br]Does a circle have symmetry?[br]What is the maximum amount of symmetry a line can have?

[url=http://www.corestandards.org/Math/Content/4/G/A/3/]CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.G.A.3[/url][br]Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across the figure such that the figure can be folded along the line into matching parts. Identify line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry.[br]
