Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: May struggle to use a compass so they might require a circular template. Then they need to make sure they position the circle template through the centre point each time they draw a circle.
Pupils working at greater depth: Might draw the flower of life more easily and progress to drawing a repeating pattern using this method.
