Our brilliant Year 2 students have begun their fascinating journey into symmetry this week. To understand perfect balance and mirror images, they embarked on a joyful investigation by creating beautiful paint butterflies.
By carefully applying paint to one side and folding the paper, they actively created stunning, symmetrical patterns. It was heartwarming to watch their enthusiastic mirror-image creations appear, transforming complex maths concepts into tangible art.
It’s fantastic to see our young mathematicians making such wonderful, hands-on connections in the classroom.
