Learning journey

Your child is learning to measure and work with angles using protractors, classify shapes by their properties, and understand transformations like reflections and translations while exploring how angles relate to each other.

Evidence of understanding

  • Measure an angle with a protractor and read 47°
  • Draw an angle of 135° using a protractor
  • Identify which scale on the protractor to use for an obtuse angle

Assessment prompt

If Measuring angles is given a protractor and an angle drawn on paper, can they measure it accurately and then draw a new angle of a size you specify?
