Symmetry
This topic covers the symmetry of plane and solid shapes, including rotational symmetry and planes of symmetry. Learners will identify axes and orders of rotational symmetry for 2D shapes and planes of symmetry for 3D objects. This topic develops visual-spatial intelligence and an appreciation for geometric patterns in art, nature, and design. It is part of the Competence-Based Curriculum's holistic approach to mathematics. While conceptually focused, symmetry may be tested in ECZ papers. Practice with a variety of shapes will sharpen observational and descriptive skills.

Outcomes
If you passWell done! You have a keen eye for identifying symmetry in shapes, a valuable geometric skill.
If you don't pass yetSymmetry is about careful observation. For rotational symmetry, try mentally rotating the shape. For solids, imagine cutting them to find mirror halves.
