tick objects that match description e.g. look
at this triangle, tick the shape that has
rotated half a turn clockwise etc.
write a series of instructions to allow to
follow a route/path. Can only move in the
direction facing.
Challenge – Look at your pattern. Rotate each large
circle by a right angle, each large square half a turn
and each large triangle a quarter turn anti-clockwise.
Is your new pattern still a repeating pattern? Why?
