Make it Symmetrical WORKSHEET
Suitable for Grades: 4th Grade, 8th Grade
CCSS: 4.G.A.3, 8.G.A.1
CCSS Description: Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across the figure such that the figure can be folded along the line into matching parts. Identify line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry.
Verify experimentally the properties of rotations, reflections, and translations: a. Lines are taken to lines, and line segments to line segments of the same length. b. Angles are taken to angles of the same measure. c. Parallel lines are taken to parallel lines.

Make it Symmetrical WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
Make It Symmetrical is designed to help students develop their understanding of line symmetry through a hands-on approach. The task involves adding squares to given shapes so that the dotted line acts as a mirror line, reinforcing the concept of reflectional symmetry.
The worksheet progresses in difficulty, starting with adding one square per shape and increasing to four squares. This structured challenge strengthens students' ability to visualize and create symmetrical patterns.
With clear instructions and engaging visuals, this worksheet is ideal for classwork, independent practice, or homework, making symmetry more interactive and accessible.
