The aim of this lesson is to recognize the importance and applicability of symmetry in our daily life by the students aged 13-14. Applying symmetry around us by making images with symmetrical figures, symmetrical constructions from various material and digital resources can help students identify and explain phenomena, processes from their lives.

Learning Objectives and outcomes

With the completion of this module the trainees will be able to ……

  • Understand the structure of a Lesson Plan on Symmetry
  • Use theoretical knowledge in practical contexts, demonstrating what they know to do, communicating and collaborating to each other
  • Demonstrate the procedure followed, and the presentation to other colleagues
  • Implement the Lesson Plan in the classroom

Content and Resources

Present the activities and resources that maths, ICT, biology, art, history and physics teachers can use in a STEAME environment/framework, working together to identify elements from real life that include symmetry.

Methodology and approaches for the module training presentation

Powerpoint presentation, discussion through active participation with the trainees, examples given (objects, geometric shapes)
