Summary

This unit focuses on the properties of angles and shapes.  Beautifully illustrated to support learning and with a balance of clarity and challenge, this unit provides a valuable resource for the development of understanding within this area of mathematics.  The first lesson focuses on circles and their properties. Calculations of circumference and area are used to find perimeters and areas of compound shapes.  The unit then moves on to consider angle properties in parallel lines, triangles and quadrilaterals.  Polygons, both regular and irregular are explored with consideration of interior and exterior angles and the solving of contextualised problems.  The lesson moves on to introduce and use Pythagoras’ theorem to calculate lengths.  The final lesson of this unit looks at simple geometric proof including understanding and using proofs around angles in triangles and other polygons.

The fact that the resources are so thorough and there is a WS and HWK for every lesson, has saved me a huge amount of planning time as there is already plenty for students to do.
