3 Quick Angle Activities to Practice Measurement and Classification: Acute, Right, Obtuse, Straight, Reflex
Math, Geometry, Measurements, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, Activities
Do you need a few new ideas for your grade 4-6 math unit on angles (acute, right, obtuse, straight, and reflex)? This one page handout could be a super addition to your unit planning! There are three quick and easy activities provided to add new ideas to your instruction and help those students who learn in different ways. 1) Kinaesthetic Angle Game: Everyone stands up. The teacher calls out a type of angle (acute, right, obtuse, straight, reflex). Students use their arms to make that angle. Students can make up their own "angle dance routines" and teach them to their peers. 2) Angle Scavenger Hunt: Students make a table in their notebook with the five types of angles: acute, right, obtuse, straight, reflex. They look around the classroom, the school, or outside and record examples of each type of angle in the environment. 3) Angle Exit Slip: Want to ensure your students are grasping the concepts of your angle unit and learning how to use a protractor accurately? Copy and give this quick assessment . Students must measure and classify two angles and draw three given angles. It only takes five minutes, but it can give you very helpful information about which students in your class might need some small group instruction to master these concepts. Grades to Use With: These lesson ideas work for students in grades 4-7. For example, in British Columbia, Canada students learn about angles in grade six. In the US, they are part of the grade 4 curriculum. What's Included: 1 page PDF with three activities If you enjoy these math ideas, check out others in my store: BC Grade 5 Math: Full Year Supplemental Activities, Games, and Tasks BC Grade 6 Math: Full Year Supplemental Activities, Games, and Tasks BC Grade 7 Math: Full Year Supplemental Activities, Games, and Tasks
