What an on point week we\u2019ve had! Our class have been exploring the fascinating world of angles. We\u2019ve been busy measuring, building and moving to understand how angles shape the world around us.<\/p>\n

We used K\u2019nex to rebuild the <\/span>Eiffel Tower! As we built, we had to identify the specific angles required to give the tower its iconic shape. We saw plenty of angles helping to create those sturdy triangles that keep the structure standing tall.<\/span><\/p>\n

We headed outside in small groups for a game of Pac-Man<\/b>. Instead of joysticks, we used mazes used from sticks and directional language and angle turns (90\u00b0, 180\u00b0, and 360\u00b0) to navigate the “maze.” It was a fantastic way to see how angles relate to movement and position.<\/p>\n

The rain didn\u2019t stop us creating stick art outside. In groups we created images, ensuring they had different types of angles. We identified and classified angles, using angle names, we estimated angle sized and then measured using a protractor.<\/p>\n
