Angles & Parallel Lines (Double Lesson)

This is a double lesson package and includes 2 lessons on angles and parallel lines. The first lesson looks at recalling the rules of angles formed when a transversal crosses parallel lines. The second lesson looks at applying these rules to find missing angles.

This lesson is appropriate for the full range of attainments. The lessons start by recapping prior knowledge before moving on to look at the new content. Pupils need a knowledge of basic geometry notation, angles on a straight line, around a point and in a triangle, quadrilateral and the angle properties of special triangles. This lesson allows the topic to be differentiated for a variety of attainment levels and could easily be adapted to meet the needs of higher or lower attaining groups through missing out specific examples.

As with all the angle lessons the Maths Market has available, challenge comes from increasing difficult application of rules and through the interleaving of previous learning on angles and through the involvement of forming and solving a variety of equations.

The lessons include;
Starters
Introduction to the topic in small chunks
Opportunities to practice basic skills through collaborative activities.
Examples and counterexamples
Clear modelling through “I do” and “You Do” examples.
Multiple choice questions to draw out misconceptions.
Differentiated worksheets.
Challenge questions.

The lesson includes the solutions and is fully animated which will make it perfect for delivering live remote lessons.
