Understanding angles
Recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn

Teaching Table
Set out your lesson
Practise the bounded task in Understanding angles; see exact limits before inferring broader coverage.
Can follow direction words; use two pencils laid on a table, never swing a real door near fingers.
Exact directed source edges retained; earlier authorship is not learner attainment.
These supplied stage cards
Scrap paper and pencil; oral/pointing response where appropriate
Read readiness and decide on support without treating prerequisite authoring as learner readiness.
Open Show first and explain its model.
Use Guided Try with support and its separate adult key.
Close Show and guided keys before Try, unless this Try is explicitly supported.
Reflect on an actual attempt, including help used.
Use the supplied screen cards; copying the exact task to paper is optional, not required.
Use only invented scenarios and optional anonymous local notes. Do not request names, photos, family finances, medical data, accounts or uploads. Stop uncomfortable physical activity.

Use the complete materials on screen or print only the current sheet. Keep adult guidance out of learner view. Retain an earlier model only when the current step supplies it as context.
Teaching limits and safe use
These are finite task opportunities, not proof of mastery. Record what was attempted and what support was used.
Informal corners/turns; no protractor measurement, reflex angles or universal shape classification.
Use only invented scenarios and optional anonymous local notes. Do not request names, photos, family finances, medical data, accounts or uploads. Stop uncomfortable physical activity.

Check understanding
- Identify angles at the corners of 2-D shapes
- Describe a turn (e.g. quarter turn, half turn) in terms of the angle made
- Explain that an angle measures the amount of turn between two lines meeting at a point
“If you ask your child to point to an angle on the corner of a book or door frame, can they find it — and explain that swinging a door open is also a kind of turn (angle)?”
