A geometry mix for Year 5 maths in three sections. Pupils match angles like 45°, 120° and 200° to their types, sort polygons into regular and irregular with reasoning about sides and angles, then name the 3D shapes made from 2D nets, including a cube and a cylinder. Complete answers are provided. It draws on four England National Curriculum shape objectives.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Know angles are measured in degrees: estimate and compare acute, obtuse and reflex angles”
Angle Detectives asks for exactly this classification.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Distinguish between regular and irregular polygons based on reasoning about equal sides and angles”
Shape Sorter requires the reasoning, not just the label.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Identify 3-D shapes, including cubes and other cuboids, from 2-D representations”
3D Visions works from nets to solid names.
Matching angles such as 45°, 120° and 200° to acute, obtuse and reflex.
Deciding whether three polygons are regular or irregular.
Naming the 3D shape each 2D net folds into.
Complete answers for every question.
Unit round-up
Three different shape skills in one sheet suit an end-of-unit lesson.
Revision
Use it as a geometry refresher weeks after the unit ends.
Cover lesson
It stands alone with its answer key, so no specialist input is needed.
