Teach Year 2 geometry outdoors and provide real-life context for these learning objectives. In this unit your children will explore and represent 2D and 3D shapes and play active maths games to extend their understanding these. A fun, practical and hands-on set of lessons!
Combine nature and your children’s knowledge of 2D shapes to explore the number of vertices and sides in each shape. Taking this lesson outdoors provides an active and visual learning style to engage your children and build their understanding of 2D shapes.
The main activity of this outdoor lesson uses natural loose parts found in your outdoor space to explore symmetry and lines of symmetry in 2D shapes to build your children’s confidence in identifying lines of symmetry.
This outdoor maths lesson investigates the shapes found on surfaces of 3D shapes and is guaranteed to engage your class! The main activity is provided with a variety of options, enabling you to choose the one best suited to your available resources and outdoor space.
During this outdoor lesson your children will identify the properties of 3D shapes and record these in tables. The starter and plenary bring active learning to the lesson with hunts and games for your children to demonstrate their learning.
