A cloze passage about a skater's path introduces angles on a straight line and around a point in this Year 5 maths worksheet. Pupils fill the gaps, with one distractor word to avoid, then use the facts that a straight line totals 180° and a point totals 360° to find missing angles on diagrams, including one where 150° and 90° are already known. A full answer key is included. It matches three England National Curriculum angle objectives.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Identify angles at a point on a straight line and ½ a turn (total 180°)”
The first diagram question rests on the 180° total.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Identify angles at a point and one whole turn (total 360°)”
The second diagram uses 360° with two known angles.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Identify other multiples of 90°”
The passage links straight lines and turns to multiples of 90°.
A skater-themed fill-in-the-blank passage with one distractor in the word bank.
Diagram questions finding missing angles on a straight line and around a point.
Passage answers and worked diagram solutions.
Guided practice
Read the passage together, then release pupils onto the diagrams.
Homework
The word bank and key make it workable without support.
Intervention
The passage restates the angle facts for pupils who forget which total is which.
