Angle Tangle

Math games are a great way to reinforce the learning in the classroom. Measuring angles using protractors and Power Polygons has been 2 different activities Room 22 has been doing lately.

The game “Angle Tangle” was a fun way to practice estimating and measuring angles using a protractor. We did this in pairs and had a lot of fun doing it!

Instructions:

Student A had to draw any angle they wanted (acute or obtuse). Student B had to estimate the size of the angle and write it down. Then, student B had to measure the actual angle. Student B’s score is the difference. Student A and B take turns until each has made 5 angles. The student with the lowest total score wins!

What’s a favourite math game that you’ve played?
