Geometry teacher instructions

This booklet is a valuable resource for Year 6 teachers seeking to enhance their geometry lessons with a variety of activities tailored to meet the specific objectives of the curriculum. Each activity is clearly labeled with the relevant objectives and comes with a detailed list of necessary equipment and resources. The booklet is thoughtfully designed to cater to different learning environments and styles, indicating whether an activity is best suited for the whole class, small groups, or pairs.

Teachers have the flexibility to incorporate these activities at various points within their lesson plans. They can be used at the start of a lesson to refresh prior knowledge or assess what students already know, as the main body of a lesson to reinforce new concepts, or at the end of a lesson to gauge students' progress. The activities are intended to complement the existing teaching materials and can be particularly beneficial for children who require additional support through intervention groups. To further support the learning process, the KS2Gems website offers additional resources, including geometry vocabulary, grid templates, digit cards for degrees, tools for measuring angles, and exercises on translations and reflections.
