LC: To be able to recognise angles as a description of a turn.
Blended Learning Teacher Input
The turn marked by the hour hand and the minute hand is called an angle.
An angle is formed when two straight lines meet at a point and we can mark it to show it clearly.
Angles can be made by turning
clockwise
(the same direction as the way in which the hands of a clock move round)
or
anticlockwise
(in the opposite direction to the way in which the hands of a clock move round)
We can show that we have made different angles by labelling them with letters like a, b and c.
Can you make angles that are bigger and smaller than the examples?
Miss Hall’s friend said, ‘All you have to do is make longer lines to make a different angle.’
Is this correct?
Does the length of the line have anything to do with the angle they make?
How do you know?
What needs to happen to make an angle?
