P5S – Time for Triangles

Image result for isosceles triangle

Today we continued with our Shape topic and learned all about the different types of triangles and their properties. To help with your understanding  we played a sorting game where you had to look at the properties of different types of triangles and display them under the correct name. Can you remember how to spell (and pronounce) the names? They were rather tricky! Can you tell someone the name of the triangle above?

Next you all became detectives and had to solve a couple of crimes. You had to use your knowledge of the properties of each style of triangle and try to work out who the culprit was and send them to jail.

Before heading out for break, everyone had to complete an exit pass and tell me the names of all of the triangles and the properties of at least one of them. I did have a chuckle at some of the spelling! Guess what words we will be practicing next week.

Here are a few photographs from today’s lesson.
