Properties of Shape - Draw Lines and Angles Accurately - Starter

In a mathematics lesson for Year 6 students during the Summer Term, the children are tasked with a series of 'Fluent in Four' revision exercises designed to consolidate their arithmetic skills. The first challenge involves division, where students must find the quotient of 884 divided by 17. Following this, they are presented with a subtraction problem that requires them to calculate the difference between nine thousands, seven hundreds and eighty-four ones, and a number that is four less than ninety tens. This exercise tests their understanding of place value and subtraction.

The lesson continues with a geometry component where students must determine the size of each angle in a given figure. They are encouraged to explain their reasoning, helping to develop their ability to articulate mathematical processes. The worksheet also includes a multiplication activity focused on the multiples of 17, enhancing their times tables knowledge. To apply their learning to real-world scenarios, a word problem is presented where they must calculate the average speed at which Malachi should walk 6,358 metres in 25 hours. This integrates their skills in division and measurement, demonstrating the practical application of mathematics in everyday situations.
