What mastery looks like
- Use terms such as clockwise, anti-clockwise, quarter turn, half turn, three-quarter turn
- Describe a right angle as a quarter turn
- Give and follow directions involving straight-line movement and turns
Check your understanding
Can Position, direction, and movement follow directions like "turn clockwise a quarter turn" or "move three squares to the right" on a grid or in a simple navigation game?
