Check understanding
- Identify the vertex and arms of an angle in a diagram
- Find examples of angles in the classroom (e.g. open door, clock hands)
- Explain why two rays meeting at a point form an angle
“If you draw two lines starting from the same point on paper, can your child tell you that the space between them is an angle — and point to the vertex where they meet?”
