YEAR 2 Position Direction Describing movement turns Make

YEAR 2 Position & Direction Describing movement & turns Make patterns with shapes Block 1 – Week 3

Lesson 1 Step: Describing movement & turns (1)

Which is your left and right hand? Hold your hands out in front of you. left right The hand that makes an L shape is your left hand.

Fluency Stand up. Which way will we be facing if we turn left? Show this. Which way will we be facing if we turn right? Show this.

Fluency Task 1 Follow the instruction cards with a partner.

Fluency RECAP: Clockwise and anticlockwise: anticlockwise

Fluency RECAP: Stand up. Which way will we be facing if we turn clockwise? Show this. Which way will we be facing if we turn anticlockwise? Show this.

Fluency Stand up and show: A quarter turn anticlockwise. A half turn clockwise. A full turn anticlockwise.

Fluency Task 2 Follow the instruction cards with a partner.

Fluency Task 3 Write your own instructions using for a partner to follow. Use the words to help you:

Reasoning Dom says, Turning a quarter turn left is the same as turning a quarter turn clockwise. Do you agree with Dom? Explain your answer. No. Turning a quarter turn left would be the same as turning a quarter turn anticlockwise (not clockwise).

Fill in the blank. A quarter turn anticlockwise is the same as three _______quarter turn clockwise. Problem solving

Lesson 2 Step: Describing movement & turns (2)

Fluency Recap: Turn right Turn left Turn clockwise Turn anticlockwise

Left / right turns: Complete the sentences. X Move forward ______2 squares. left Make a quarter turn ______. 1 forward ______ square. Move _______ Fluency

Left / right turns: Complete the sentences. 2 forwards ______ squares. Move _______ left Make a quarter turn ______. X forward ______ square. 1 Move _______ quarterturn ______. left Make a ______ 3 forwards ______ squares. Move _______ Fluency

Now let’s think about using clockwise and anticlockwise to describe turns. right if we are turning clockwise. We will turn ______ left We will turn ______ if we are turning anticlockwise.

Fluency Complete the sentences. X Move forward ______2 squares. anticlockwise Make a quarter turn __________. 2 forwards ______ squares. Move _______

Fluency Complete the sentences. X 3 forwards ______ squares. Move _______ clockwise Make a quarter turn ________. forwards ______ squares. 2 Move _______ quarterturn ________. clockwise Make a ______ 3 forwards ______ squares. Move _______

Fluency Where would the sheep end up if it moved: 2 steps forwards, Quarter turn clockwise, 1 step forward?

Fluency Where would the duck end up if it moved: 3 steps forwards, Quarter turn anticlockwise, 1 step forward, Quarter turn anticlockwise, 2 steps forwards?

Fluency Where would the bee end up if it moved: 1 step forward, Quarter turn clockwise, 3 steps forwards, Quarter turn anticlockwise, 1 step forward

Reasoning Kat says, Turning clockwise one full turn would leave me facing in the same direction as turning anticlockwise one full turn. Do you agree with Kat? Explain your answer. Yes, because a full turn either direction would leave you facing the same way as you started.

Write the shortest route from the monkey to the banana? How many other routes can you find? Problem solving

Lesson 3 Step: Describing movement & turns (3)

How many different routes can you find? X What is the shortest route? Problem solving

Reasoning Spot the mistake in the route. 2 steps forwards. A quarter turn anticlockwise. 1 step forward. A quarter turn clockwise is needed. (not a quarter turn anticlockwise).

Lesson 4 Step: Make patterns with shapes (Practical)

How would you describe this pattern? It is rotating a quarter turn clockwise each time. Fluency

How would you describe this pattern? It is rotating a half turn clockwise or anticlockwise each time. Fluency

How would you describe this pattern? It is rotating a quarter anticlockwise each time.

How would you describe this pattern? It is rotating a quarter clockwise each time.

Practical: Make patterns using the shapes given. Can you describe your patterns?

Lesson 5 Step: Make patterns with shapes

How would you describe this pattern? It is rotating a quarter turn anticlockwise each time. What would come next? Fluency

How would you describe this pattern? Fluency It is rotating a half turn clockwise / anticlockwise each time. What would come next?

How would you describe this pattern? It is rotating a quarter turn clockwise each time. What would come next? Fluency

How would you describe this pattern? Fluency It is rotating a half turn clockwise / anticlockwise each time. What would come next?

Reasoning The pattern shows the shapes turning a quarter turn clockwise each time. True or false? Explain your answer. False, the pattern shows the shapes turning a quarter turn anticlockwise each time.

How many different patterns can you create using only this shape? Describe each of your patterns. Problem solving
