Tree Angles
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise identifying and counting the numbers of acute and obtuse angles that can be found in different shapes on a tree in a garden or local park.
The class can explain and model how to use a protractor correctly to measure and classify the different types of angles that might be seen in the branches and leaf shapes that are part of a tree.
Download this teaching pack including classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise identifying and counting the numbers of acute and obtuse angles that can be found in different shapes on a tree in a garden or local park
Activities in this teaching pack include a differentiated set of worksheets to identify and count the numbers of angles bigger and smaller than a right angle for support ability levels and measure acute and obtuse angles for core and extension ability levels that can be found in different shapes on a tree.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore and and count the numbers of acute and obtuse angles that can be found in different shapes on a tree.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to practise measuring, calculating and classifying different types of angles that can seen in a range of outdoor locations. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
