[2] In this activity, students will look at various shapes that have already been pre-categorized into two groups. One will be symmetrical shapes and the other asymmetrical shapes. The teacher won’t tell the students why they are categorized into each group. The goal is for the students to identify what each of the groups has in common. The teacher should look for phrases like, mirror image, or both sides are the same. The goal of this engage activity is for the students to identify the mystery category. This activity maybe quite short and might not take up an entire class period, so it might be useful to put it at the end of the previous topic. Indicators: Classify different 2-D shapes or designs made of 2-D shapes according to lines of symmetry. [Nine]
