These symmetry activity sheets are perfect for your Pilgrim study, math, and art lessons.  The lessons include some warm-up drawings along with how to draw food and people associated with the Pilgrim and their trip aboard the Mayflower. Symmetry also may fit into your math curriculum and is a fun way to teach kids about the line of symmetry (or reflection).

1. Finish a symmetrical drawing with parts missing on one side.
2. Finish a symmetrical drawing with parts from both sides.
3. Finish a symmetrical drawing that is blank on one side.
