Lesson details
Key learning points
- There are 360 degrees in a full turn.
- Use mental or written strategies to calculate with angles up to 360 degrees.
Common misconception
The largest angle that can be created is a 360 degree angle or one full turn.
Explore examples in everyday life where rotations are greater than one full turn. Discuss how multiples of 180 degrees or 360 degrees are often used to describe movements in sports and other contexts.
Keywords
Turn - To turn means to rotate about a point.
Degrees - A degree is a unit of measure for angles.
