Rotational Symmetry is when a shape or image can be rotated and it still looks the same. It is rotated around a central point, so it appears two or more times. Symmetry is one of the most important math concepts that Kindergartners will learn. It seems easy but many children have a difficult time grasping the concept. I think if children don't understand what you are explaining to them about rotational symmetry with out actually showing them with hands on then this would be hard for the children to understand. I think when teaching something like this to students it should be taught using a hands on method. Here is an example you can use to help the students understand. you can use pictures of butterflies and have the kids color them in symmetrically and also asymmetrically if you want and this way they learn both terms. Rotational Symmetry is important to have children understand because it is seem dailey when children look at flowers, domes and many other objects that are in their surroundings
