Target Age:

Lesson Overview

By the end of this unit, children will be able to:

  1. classify quadrilaterals (e.g., squares, rectangles, parallelograms, trapeziums) based on properties like the lengths of sides and the sizes of angles;
  2. understand and compare the angles in different quadrilaterals, noting that squares and rectangles have right angles, while others may have acute or obtuse angles.

Curriculum Alignment: Year 4 Geometry – properties of shapes:

  • compare and classify geometric shapes, including quadrilaterals and triangles, based on their properties and sizes
