Rotation (A) WORKSHEET

Suitable for Year groups: Year 7, Year 8, Year 9
GCSE Tier: Foundation
Targeting grades: 1-3
Prerequisite knowledge: The directions clockwise and anticlockwise. Quarter and half turns in degrees.
Learning Objective: rotate shapes, clockwise and anticlockwise around a centre of rotation on a shape

Rotation (A) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Give your students ample practice of rotating objects on individual square grids with this worksheet. There are 12 objects to rotate either clockwise or anticlockwise around a given point by multiples of 90 degrees. The polygons in each question are unique and have vertical, horizontal and diagonal sides. All centres of rotation are on a vertex of each polygon; the perfect place to introduce or discuss invariant points with your class or individual.

Other key questions include, why is no direction listed when rotating a shape 180 degrees and why have you not been asked to rotate a shape 360 degrees?

Ensure learners are equipped with a pencil and a ruler and they may require access to tracing paper.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.
