Angle Hunt

Give each pair a right-angle checker (two strips of cardboard joined at a corner, or the corner of a piece of paper) and an angle recording sheet. 

Students walk around the classroom/school looking for:

RIGHT ANGLES exactly like the corner of their checker

• corners of doors

• windows

• tables

• books

• floor tiles

• whiteboards

 ACUTE ANGLES – smaller than a right angle

• the hands on a clock

• the corner where a door is slightly open

• scissors partly open

• the angle of a roof

• playground equipment

OBTUSE ANGLES  bigger than a right angle but smaller than a straight angle

Write this into a table of the real life angles that you found.
