Use coordinates in all four quadrants to reflect the shapes
The worksheet
creator enables you to produce an almost infinite(!) number of worksheets.
Click on "new worksheet" and the shapes will change position.
Print the worksheet when you are happy with the shapes generated.
An answer sheet and a pupil question sheet (without answers!) will
be printed.

the National Numeracy Strategy:
Years 4,
5 and 6
Recognise reflective symmetry in 2-D shapes, reflections and
translations.
Recognise postions and directions, and use coordinates.
Years 5
Complete symmetrical patterns with two lines of symmetry at right
angles.
Recognise where a shape will be after reflection in a mirror line
parallel to one side.
Years 6
Recognise where a shape will be after reflection in a mirror line
touching the shape at a point. Recognise where a shape will be after
a rotation through 90 degrees about one of its vertices.

Shape, space and measures
Key Stage
2
Pupils should be taught to:
- transform
2-D shapes by translation, reflection and rotation, and visualise
movements and simple transformations and describe patterns.
- transform
images using ICT
- visualise
and predict the position of a shape following a rotation, reflection
or translation.
- locate and
draw shapes using coordinates in the first quadrant, then in all
four quadrants (for example, use coordinates to locate position
in a computer game).
Key Stage
3
Pupils should be taught to:
- understand
that rotations are specified by a centre and an angle.
- understand
that reflections are specified by a mirror line.
- recognise
and visualise rotations, reflections and translations, including
reflection symmetry of 2-D shapes, and rotation symmetry of 2-D
shapes; trnasform 2-D shapes by translation, rotation and reflection.
- use the conventions
for coordinates in the plane; plot points in all four quadrants.
Level 4
Pupils reflect simple shapes in a mirror line.
Level 5
Pupils use and interpret coordinates in all four quadrants.
