Learn to identify right angles in shapes and everyday objects, understand their 90-degree measurement, and apply this knowledge to real-world problem-solving.
By the end of this unit, students will be able to:
Understand the concept of a right angle as an angle that measures exactly 90 degrees.
Recognize and identify right angles in various shapes and objects.
Describe real-life examples of right angles.
Apply knowledge of right angles to problem-solving and everyday situations
National Curriculum Objectives
Year 3 Geometry: Properties of shapes
Recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn.
Identify right angles, recognise that 2 right angles make a half-turn, 3 make three-quarters of a turn and 4 a complete turn; identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle.
