Non-Verbal Reasoning: Lines of Symmetry
A line of symmetry folds a shape into two halves that match exactly. Percy the penguin finds the 4 lines of symmetry in a square, then shows why a rectangle has only 2 (its diagonals are not lines of symmetry). Then find how many lines of symmetry an equilateral triangle has yourself.

Which option shows this L shape turned a quarter turn clockwise? Leo the lion watches the shape spin and follows one corner around, then avoids the mirror-image trap. Then find the L shape after a half turn.
1:41Non-Verbal Reasoning: Reflecting Shapes
Hopper the frog sees his reflection in the pond. Learn how a shape flips over a mirror line: each part stays the same distance from the line, on the other side. Find the reflection in a vertical mirror line, then in a horizontal one, and spot the rotation trap.
1:46Non-Verbal Reasoning: Rotation or Reflection?
Is shape b a turned copy of shape a, or its mirror image? Fizz the fox imagines turning the L shape: if it can be turned to fit, it is a rotation; if it has to be flipped over, it is a reflection. Then find the one reflection among three turned L shapes yourself.
