25. Use a protractor to measure angles in whole-number degrees and sketch angles of specified measure.
Subject: Mathematics (4)
Title: Measuring Angles
Description:

This lesson is designed to teach students to measure angles with a protractor. The student will be taught how to read the protractor correctly by using either the top or bottom set of numbers. The lesson will reinforce classifying angles as acute, right, and obtuse. The student will sketch angles given a specified measure.

This lesson results from the ALEX Resource Gap Project.

Title: Colorful Angles
Description:

In this learning activity, students will watch a video to review right, acute, and obtuse angles.  Students will create various angles using strips of construction paper.  Finally, students will measure their newly created angles with a protractor.

This activity was created as a result of the Arts COS Resource Development Summit.
