Grade 6 - Shape and Space

Standard 6.SS.1 - Practice constructing a specific angle with a protractor.

Included Skills:

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

• Provide examples of angles found in the environment.
• Classify a set of angles according to their measure (e.g., acute, right, obtuse, straight, reflex).
• Sketch 45°, 90°, and 180° angles without the use of a protractor, and describe the relationship among them.
• Estimate the measure of an angle using 45°, 90°, and 180° as reference angles.
• Measure, using a protractor, angles in various orientations.
• Draw and label an angle in various orientations using a protractor.
• Describe the measure of an angle as the measure of rotation of one of its sides.
• Describe the measure of angles as the measure of an interior angle of a polygon.
