Teacher Benefits
- Save time and simplify your Maths planning
With every lesson clearly sequenced and ready to teach, our Maths schemes take the stress out of planning and ensure smooth progression from one objective to the next. - Ensure National Curriculum coverage
Each unit in our Year 5 Maths curriculum has been carefully designed to meet National Curriculum objectives, giving you complete confidence that every skill and concept is taught and revisited. - Support for every teacher, every class
Clear explanations and built-in differentiation make our Maths lessons easy to deliver for ECTs and experienced teachers alike, supporting adaptive teaching across a range of abilities. - Build confidence and fluency for all pupils
From reasoning and problem-solving to fluency practice, each lesson helps children develop mathematical understanding in engaging, hands-on ways that make learning stick.
Starting off at a point where most children in Year 5 will feel comfortable, these ‘Angles and Triangles’ lessons quickly up the ante throughout the week, as children are challenged to apply their learning to increasingly complex tasks such as drawing shapes accurately using a protractor, using a growing range of vocabulary to describe shapes, and investigating the special properties of triangles which affect how many times they can be rotated exactly around a point!
This downloadable 'Angles and Triangles' lesson pack for Year 5 has lesson plans, slideshow presentations and printable teaching resources.
Exploring Angles
This Exploring Angles lesson begins by reminding children of the properties of angles, focusing initially on right angles. Following this, the slideshow explains the differences between acute, obtuse and reflex angles. Your class will have the opportunity to estimate the size of a variety of angles and measure them using protractors.

Missing Triangle Angles
This Missing Triangle Angles lesson is design to boost your children's confidence surrounding the properties of angles. It’s helpful to know how many degrees are in a quarter, half, three-quarter and full turn – but do you know why? Challenge children to use this knowledge to help them calculate one or more missing angles on a straight line or around a point! During either of the two included activities, children may practise this skill, then check their calculations by measuring angles using protractors.
