Starting shape learning.19 June 2025 (by admin) |
This week, Discoverers and Voyagers have started learning about shapes in Maths. They started by investigating angles, which are linked to rotation.
It was fantastic to see the children exploring different shapes and lines to look for angles in partners. We soon learnt that an angle is a measure of the amount of rotation from one straight line to another. The reasoning that they used to explain their thinking to partners was incredible. They also used set squares to create their own angles and soon started to notice patterns by how you make right angles, acute angles and obtuse angles. Fantastic mathematical thinking and exploring. They are definitely now angle spotting masters!
