Ordering: degrees on a circle
Drag four of the angles to the correct place on the circle. Drag the remaining angles in order from smallest to largest. When you are finished, use the ‘Mark’ button to see if you are right.
Discussion points
- How many degrees are in a circle?
- Which option would give you more pizza: three-quarters or 180°?
- Did you know that a circle has infinite lines of symmetry? What does this mean?
Teaching tips:
A starter activity could see children putting a selection of two- and three-digit numbers in order from smallest to largest. Following this activity children could have a pre-cut circle to label with degrees to keep as a reference.
