Will it fold or will it not fold…that is the question!

 

Question:

Is it possible to fold a square or rectangle in half…so that one half falls exactly on the other half?

We are looking at how to fold squared and rectangular paper to get two exact halves. This is called s_ _ _ _ _ _ y.

Could your child explain what symmetry means? Could they use words or a demonstration to explain it to someone who didn’t know?
