Maths

We are learning about position and direction. We are going to learn about half turns and quarter turns.

 

 

Directions and turns

Directions and turns can be used to explain a journey.

Directions are instructions like 'three steps forward' or 'one step backwards'. These tell you how far to go.

Turns can be clockwise (the same way the hands on a clock move) or anti-clockwise (the opposite way to a clock's hands).

You can turn a quarter, half or complete turn - this would take you back to where you started.

 

 

 

 

 

Let's see if you can identify the turns in this quiz.

 

 

We are now going to practice using direction on Beebot.
