This is a 'Whispers Game Series, group task about mathematical communication and attention to detail. The activity looks at the properties of 2D shapes, including length of sides, size of angles, parallel lines and reflection symmetry as well as the notation to show these. Students play in groups of 4 and the idea is to end up with the same 2D shape that they started with, or be able to work out what mathematical or communication error was made along the way. There are 3 different worksheets increasing in difficulty.
