Outstanding Y5/Y6 Maths Interview Lesson - Angles

(0)
Are you teaching year 5 or 6 children (UKS2) about obtuse, acute, and right angles and how to use protractors to measure angles in math? This outstanding interview lesson plan is perfect for you! This outstanding interview lesson teaches year 5 and year 6 children about obtuse, acute and right angles and using protractors to measure angles in maths is designed to showcase your mastery of subject knowledge and effective teaching techniques, impressing any Ofsted inspector. Using the principles of mastery learning and reasoning, this lesson is differentiated to meet the needs of all learners. The learning objective is to accurately use a protractor, with success criteria that include lining up the bottom of the protractor with one of the lines, making sure the corner (vertex) of the angle is in the middle of the protractor, and looking at where the 0 is on the line to use the correct set of numbers. The starter activity invites the children to look at the success criteria and complete a cold task on the screen, while the main activity provides teacher input on what angles are, as well as a discussion of real-life examples and different types of angles, such as right angles, obtuse angles, and acute angles. Children also have the opportunity to play “Simon Says” to identify whole turns, half turns, and 90-degree turns, shouting out the degrees of each angle as they do it. To engage higher ability children, they can complete the Hot Task (input) silently and independently while the rest of the class receives input. Differentiated activities include using angle eaters to measure and identify different types of angles, estimating and measuring angles on worksheets, and exploring the patterns and relationships between angles in different shapes. In the plenary, students will review the success criteria and reflect on their learning, sharing which part of the lesson was the easiest or hardest. The resources for this lesson include a PowerPoint, protractors, angle eaters, cold task, show it tasks, table display, and challenge tasks. Overall, this lesson is a strong example of how to teach a complex mathematical concept while promoting mastery and reasoning skills, making it an excellent choice for showcasing your teaching abilities during an interview or impressing an Ofsted inspector or SLT observer. Ideal for a 30 minute-1 hour lesson. uks2 ks2 problem solving reasoning finishing exit tickets greater depth exceeding observation
