Mysteries are a thinking skills activity, they promote collaboration and independence from the teacher. They are perfect to use at the end of a topic, requiring pupils to use the skills in a problem solving and often real life problem.
This Translation mystery is differentiated to two levels in which pupils use the clues to plot and translate shapes; level 1 uses words e.g. "left right" where as the second level uses vectors. It comes complete with instructions, solutions and ideas for extension and support. Check out our store for a free translation starter which you could use along with this resource.
