Lesson Plan: Understanding Angles (Right, Obtuse, Acute)

Subject: Mathematics
Grade Level: Year 3
Duration: 30 Minutes
Topic: Angles (Right, Obtuse, Acute)


Learning Objectives

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

  1. Identify and describe the three types of angles: right, obtuse, and acute.
  2. Measure angles using a protractor.
  3. Create examples of each type of angle.

Materials Required


Introduction (5 Minutes)

  1. Engagement:

    • Begin with a brief discussion on angles.
    • Ask students to look around the classroom and identify any angles they can see (corners of windows, desks, etc.).
  2. Explanation:

    • Introduce the three types of angles: right, obtuse, and acute.
    • Explain that right angles are 90 degrees, acute angles are less than 90 degrees, and obtuse angles are greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

Direct Instruction (10 Minutes)

  1. Demonstration:

    • Use the whiteboard to draw examples of each type of angle.
    • Label each angle clearly and discuss the characteristics of right, acute, and obtuse angles.
  2. Protractor Usage:

    • Show students how to properly use a protractor to measure angles.
    • Explain the process step by step, ensuring they understand where to align the protractor with the vertex of the angle.

Guided Practice (10 Minutes)

  1. Activity: Measuring Angles
    • Distribute protractors and worksheets with various angles drawn on them.
    • In pairs, students will measure the angles using their protractors and classify each angle as right, acute, or obtuse.
    • Circulate the room to provide assistance and ensure understanding.

Independent Practice (5 Minutes)

  1. Creative Angle Drawing:
    • Instruct each student to create their own example of a right, acute, and obtuse angle using a ruler and a protractor.
    • They will label each angle and write its measurement next to it.

Conclusion (5 Minutes)

  1. Review:

    • Bring the class back together and ask a few students to share their drawings and measurements.
    • Recap the definitions and characteristics of right, acute, and obtuse angles.
  2. Assessment:

    • Collect angle classification worksheets to review student understanding of angle types.
    • Briefly discuss with students what they found easy or challenging during the lesson.
