Day 1: Angles on a Line and at a Point
Grade 6 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
| Objectives | Use angle facts on a line and at a point. |
|---|
| Materials | Protractors, angle cards |
|---|
| Key vocabulary | angle, straight line, 180, 360 |
|---|
| Engage (starter) | "Angles on a line make a straight 180!" |
|---|
| Develop (main) | Interactive: measure and combine angles; use angles on a line summing to 180 and around a point to 360 to find missing angles. |
|---|
| Plenary (close) | Find the missing angle on a line. |
|---|
| Assessment | Correct angles. |
|---|
| Teacher notes | Line is 180, point is 360. |
|---|
Day 2: Angles in Triangles and Quadrilaterals
Grade 6 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
| Objectives | Use angle sums of triangles and quadrilaterals. |
|---|
| Materials | Cut-out shapes, protractors |
|---|
| Key vocabulary | angle sum, triangle, quadrilateral |
|---|
| Engage (starter) | "Tear the corners and line them up!" |
|---|
| Develop (main) | Interactive: tear triangle corners to show they make 180; use angle sums to find missing angles in triangles and quadrilaterals. |
|---|
| Plenary (close) | Find the third angle of a triangle. |
|---|
| Assessment | Correct angles. |
|---|
| Teacher notes | Triangle is 180, quadrilateral is 360. |
|---|
Day 3: Properties of Polygons
Grade 6 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
| Objectives | Describe and classify polygons. |
|---|
| Materials | Polygon cards, geoboards |
|---|
| Key vocabulary | polygon, regular, sides, vertices |
|---|
| Engage (starter) | "More sides, new names!" |
|---|
| Develop (main) | Interactive: sort polygons by number of sides; identify regular and irregular; build examples on geoboards. |
|---|
| Plenary (close) | Name a six-sided polygon. |
|---|
| Assessment | Correct classification. |
|---|
| Teacher notes | Regular means equal sides and angles. |
|---|
Day 4: Transformations
Grade 6 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
| Objectives | Perform translations, reflections, and rotations. |
|---|
| Materials | Grid paper, shape cut-outs, mirrors |
|---|
| Key vocabulary | translation, reflection, rotation, image |
|---|
| Engage (starter) | "Slide, flip, and turn the shape!" |
|---|
| Develop (main) | Interactive: translate, reflect, and rotate shapes on a grid; describe the movement and locate the image. |
|---|
| Plenary (close) | Reflect a shape across a line. |
|---|
| Assessment | Correct transformations. |
|---|
| Teacher notes | The shape keeps its size. |
|---|
Day 5: Review: Geometry
Grade 6 Mathematics · Term 2, Week 10 · 60 min
| Objectives | Consolidate angles, polygons, transformations. |
|---|
| Materials | Geometry games |
