1. Write your name in block letters (all capital letters) and draw the line(s) of symmetry through each letter. An example is shown below: | |||
![]() Letters J, S, and N are not symmetrical and therefore do not have any lines of symmetry.

2. Draw a square and a rectangle and show the lines of symmetry on each. | |||
Explain why the square has more lines of symmetry than the rectangle: |
