I am excited to start a new math unit on angles. I teach a group of gifted math learners, so even though I am teaching 5th graders we are often working on math topics/skills at the 6th-8th grade level.
I created this Power Point presentation to review the parts of an angle, how to label angles and the different. types of angles.
After the review, the slides move into some new material like complementary and supplementary angles, angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and angles around a point.
The kids will be learning how to use geometric reasoning to figure out angle measures using what they know about the properties of different types of angles and putting the pieces together to figure out the unknown. Some of these problems can get quite challenging, involving multiple steps, which is great for deeper thinking and encouraging perseverance!
I have the angles slides in my Teachers Pay Teachers store if you are interested in using them with your class too!
