In this practical task, students make different shapes with four multi-link cubes, draw them, identify the smallest perimeter, and explain what happens to the area.
Students use a template to complete three rotations of a bird in the cage. The same template is used to draw the reflection of the bird using the mirror line shown on the cage.
For this task students are required to demonstrate their understanding of transformations. On three separate grids, they translate, reflect and rotate the same basic shape.
