Shaping the View: Symmetry and Balance
Students explore the symmetry and balance in the composition of a variety of art works and note how the viewer's eye is guided to the important components of the image. How these elements affect the tone of the painting and communicate...

Simetria
Your Spanish students will see what symmetry looks like on a quadrilateral, triangle, and circle in this presentation. Large, bright shapes are displayed with lines of symmetry, followed by examples that do not show a line of symmetry....
Mathematics Vision Project
Transformations and Symmetry
Flip, turn, and slide about the coordinate plane. Pupils define the rigid motions and experiment with them before determining the relationships of the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. The sixth unit in a nine-part series...

Symmetry that is Basic and Beautiful
Young scholars explore lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson, students divide and combine shapes along basic lines of symmetry. Young scholars explore symmetry in real life objects.
Curated OER
Fun With Symmetry
Students manipulate shapes to find multiple lines of symmetry. They use color to visualize the lines of symmetry.
Curated OER
Symmetry
In this symmetry worksheet, students find and trace a line of symmetry in the shapes and objects given to them. Students complete 8 problems.

Symmetry in the Coordinate Plane
The 17th installment of a 21-part module investigates symmetry in the coordinate plane. After plotting several examples, scholars develop a rule for the coordinates of a point after reflecting over the x-axis, the y-axis, or both.
Balanced Assessment
On Averages and Curves
Determine the average on a curve. The class finds graphical representations of averages and expresses them both symbolically and on the graph. The assessment requires class members to justify using average to describe graphs.
Curated OER
Lines of Symmetry
Fourth graders demonstrate lines of symmetry using polygons, pentominoes, and block letters of the alphabet. They describe, identify, and analyze characteristics and properties of geometric shapes.
Curated OER
Lines of Symmetry
In this line of symmetry worksheet, learners follow a set of instructions to create a symmetrical shape, and color correct numbers of dominoes to make symmetrical sets. Answers are included.
