Year 6 Introduce Angles
This Year 6 Introduce Angles lesson covers the prior learning of angles on a straight line and angles around a point, before moving onto the main skill of linking angles with turns and compass points.
The lesson starts with a prior learning worksheet to check pupils’ understanding. The interactive lesson slides recap the prior learning before moving on to the main skill. Children can then practise further by completing the activities and can extend their learning by completing an engaging extension task.
