Teacher steps
- The left half shows a shape. The gold line is the mirror.
- Children tap squares on the right to make the mirror image.
- Press Check. Yellow = missing, red = extra.
- Fix and check again.
- Next shape. Ask: what rule did you follow?

Activity
Levels
- Try it: mirror shape 1.
- Train it: one child gives steps (“2 up, 1 right”), the other taps.
- Break it & fix it: make a mistake on purpose and let the class find it with Check.

How AI works
- Symmetry is a rule: each square has a partner across the line.
- Computers store pictures as grids of squares (pixels).
- A rule lets a computer flip a picture in one step.
What we learned: Symmetry is a rule: each square has a partner across the line. A rule lets a computer flip a picture in one step.
