Lesson 3 – Measuring Angles

Give your child time to look at the ‘in focus’ task

What do you notice about the two angles at point P? Is one of them obtuse? What is the name of the other angle?

What is the total of the two angles? How can we find the total?

 

Ask your child to measure the angles using a protractor.

This is a useful clip which shows how to measure angles using a protractor:
