An end-of-lesson recap of three angle rules for Year 6 maths. The sheet summarises the rules in boxes, then asks pupils to find the missing angle beside 130° on a straight line, spot what Maya did wrong when she calculated 360 - 40 for an angle on a straight line, and explain vertically opposite angles to a Year 5 pupil. Answer key with marking guidance included. Matched to the England National Curriculum angles objective.
Geometry — properties of shapes
“Recognise angles where they meet at a point, are on a straight line, or are vertically opposite, and find missing angles.”
The recap, checks and error analysis all work through this single objective.
Boxed statements of the three angle facts, with no questions.
Diagram questions, including the angle vertically opposite 110°.
Error analysis of Maya's working and an explain-it-to-Year-5 task.
Detailed solutions and marking guidance.
Plenary
The wrap-up structure is built for the last fifteen minutes of an angles lesson.
Assessment check
Maya's error reveals the 360-versus-180 confusion quickly.
Peer teaching
The explain-to-Year-5 task works well spoken aloud in pairs first.
