Angle Pack - to support pupils in estimating, drawing and measuring angles

A collection of three files addressing angles. In my view, the files could be used anywhere across Key Stage Two, although measurement is specifically aimed at the upper end (Y5&6). The drawing and measuring files show a step by step approach. As such, they require teacher explanation/commentary but the visuals are clear. The estimation file can be used quite nicely as a game, once pupils are fairly comfortable with the nature of an angle. Ask them to estimate the size of each angle as it appears (a whiteboard activity?). The margin of error becomes the pupil's score and this is then added to as each new angle appears. The lower the score when all angles have been viewed, the more accurate the pupil's estimation skills. Across all files, questioning can lead to an enhanced understanding - How much more than a right angle? How much less? How many more degrees for a full turn? How much more than half a turn?

Y3:
recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn
identify right angles, recognise that two right angles make a half-turn, three make three quarters of a turn and four a complete turn; identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle
Y4:
identify acute and obtuse angles and compare and order angles up to two right angles by size
Y5:
know angles are measured in degrees: estimate and compare acute, obtuse and reflex angles
draw given angles, and measure them in degrees
identify:
angles at a point and one whole turn (total 360 degrees)
angles at a point on a straight line and 1/2 a turn (total 180 degrees)
