Math
Excellent job creating symmetrical shapes with pattern blocks. Finish Your Turn questions. Remember..... to prove that a shape is symmetrical you can:

• Cut it out and fold it in half. If one half is identical to the other (congruent) then it is symmetrical
• Use a Mira to see if one half is the mirror image of the other

Next up is reflections. A transformation that should be very easy considering your expertise in creating shapes with lines of symmetry.
