Grade 6 - Shape and Space
Standard 6.SS.1 - Practice constructing obtuse, acute and right angles with a protractor.
Included Skills: Geometry
Demonstrate an understanding of angles by: • identifying examples of angles in the environment • classifying angles according to their measure • estimating the measure of angles, using 45°, 90° and 180° as reference angles • determining angle measures in degrees • drawing and labelling angles when the measure is specified. • Achievement Indicators: - 6SS1.1 Provide examples of angles found in the environment. - 6SS12 Classify a given set of angles according to their measure; e.g., acute, right, obtuse, straight, reflex. - 6SS1.3 Estimate the measure of an angle, using 45°, 90° and 180° as reference angles. - 6SS1.4 Sketch 45°, 90° and 180° angles without the use of a protractor, and describe the relationship among them. - 6SS1.5 Measure, using a protractor, given angles in various positions. - 6SS1.6 Draw and label a specified angle in various positions, using a protractor
