Lesson Three – Acute Angles

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to explain and model how to estimate and measure the value of different acute angles in degree measurements using a protractor.
The class can explain and illustrate how to use a one hundred and eighty degree protractor correctly when measuring an example of an acute angle to identify its correct value in degrees.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to explain and model how to estimate and measure the value of different acute angles in degree measurements using a protractor
Activities in this teaching pack include a worksheet to measure and record the value of different acute angles in degrees using a protractor for core and extension ability levels and a set of cards to compare and measure the value of different acute angles in degrees using a protractor correctly.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to estimate and measure the value of different acute angles in degrees using a protractor.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to identify, classify and record the value of different types of acute, obtuse and straight line angles using protractors. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
