Maths Unit: Angles
This comprehensive unit plan is designed for Year 6 teachers to engage students in understanding the relationships between angles on a straight line, angles at a point and vertically opposite angles. The goal is to empower students to identify, measure and determine unknown angles while fostering effective communication of their reasoning.
Learning goals
- We are learning to identify, measure, estimate and compare angles on a straight line, angle at a point and vertically opposite angles to find unknown angles.
- We are learning to identify, measure, estimate and compare angles on a straight line, angles at a point and vertically opposite angles to find unknown angles.
