We have been learning how to identify and classify angles using the terms: acute, right, obtuse, straight and reflex.
We have been investigating angles in the environment and classifying them using appropriate mathematical vocabulary.
Today, we took our learning outdoors and searched for angles in our school environment. We recorded our findings on worksheets and discussed the properties of the objects.
“We were looking for angles in the outdoor classroom. We found right angles, acute and obtuse angles. We did find some reflex angles in the tyre. We worked in pairs. We recorded what we had found on a worksheet on clipboards. We also discovered that there are angles in between our arms and legs.” Shay & Rocco
“We liked looking for angles outside because we didn’t know that there were so many angles all around us. It was more fun than doing indoor work. We found lots of right angles but not a lot of reflex angles.” Lucy McG & Mirin
Excellent Effort today P5d! Well done 🙂
