Keywords
Angle - An angle is a measure of turn. It shows how far something has rotated. It is often displayed as the rotation between two line segments.
Rotate - Rotate means to turn around a fixed point. It is an action or movement.
Clockwise - Clockwise is the direction that the hands of an analogue clock travel.
Anticlockwise - Anticlockwise is the opposite direction to which the hands of an analogue clock travel.
Common misconception
Pupils understand angles as static, created where two immovable lines meet. Pupils also believe angles are only created by two lines that are completely straight.
Provide opportunities for pupils to use angle strips in order to create their own angles, manipulating either arm of the angle strip to create the angle. Ensure pupils are provided with examples where angles are formed by partially straight lines.
