Types of Turns - Trace and Rotate 2D Shapes

Checking your access...

These printable activities help students explore rotational movement by tracing or drawing a shape in its starting position, then rotating it based on a chosen type of turn and direction. Students label the turn type and direction, or simply identify the type of turn.

Trace or draw your shape in its starting position. Choose a type of turn and direction, then draw your shape in the new position. Label the type of turn and the direction (e.g. half turn to the right)

Includes:

  • 2 different options of 2D shapes for students to trace and rotate.

  • Simpler versions where students only identify the type of turn (no direction required)
