Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Know that cubes can be arranged in different ways.
- Recognise when arrangements are the same, even when they have been rotated.
- Explain how to change one arrangement into another by moving some of the cubes.
Common misconception
Might not recognise that an arrangement is still the same when it has been rotated.
Allow plenty of opportunities for building, rotating and comparing arrangements of cubes, and to view them from different perspectives.
