Quadrilaterals/kites/exterior angles. Need to add something on algebra when I come to update. NOTE: Everything is a work in progress. The latest version of this file can always be found at this link.

This lesson covers the full range of attainments for missing angles in a quadrilateral. It starts by recapping prior knowledge on angles on a straight line, around a point and in a triangle before moving onto the basics of angles in a quadrilateral. This lesson allows the topic to be differentiated for a variety of attainment levels and could easily be adapted to meet the needs of higher or lower attaining groups through missing out specific examples. The lesson does not look at the specific angle properties of kites, trapeziums, parallelograms and rhombuses, however, I do have a lesson on this available. This lesson spends time really allowing students to build an understanding of angles in a quadrilateral and builds change though the interleaving of previous learning on angles and through the involvement of forming and solving a variety of equations. The lesson includes; Starter Introduction to the topic in small chunks Opportunities to practice basic skills through a collaborative activity. Clear modelling through “I do” and “You Do” examples. Multiple choice questions to draw out misconceptions. Differentiated worksheet. A challenge question. The lesson includes the solutions and is fully animated which will make it perfect for delivering live remote lessons.

In this activity, students will practice applying what they know about angles in quadrilaterals to find the angle or variable indicated. Then, they will color their answers on a pattern with the color indicated to reveal a beautiful, colorful mandala! This no-prep activity is an excellent resource for sub plans, enrichment/reinforcement, early finishers, and extra practice with some fun. It is especially useful for end-of-year practice, spiral review, and motivated practice when students are exhausted from standardized testing or mentally “checked out” before a long break (hello summer!). Color motivates even the most challenging students and the students get a fun chance to practice their essential geometry skills. In addition, the finished products make fabulous classroom decor!

I wasn’t quite happy with what was out there so created these 3 files. One blank, one complete(potentially a knowledge organiser for quadrilaterals) and a third for a quick quiz. Bonus resource on Always, Sometimes, Never related to quadrilaterals.

This is a set of Flash Cards on The Properties of Quadrilateral. The flash cards feature three kinds of data, shapes, names of shapes, and shape properties, and are printable/configurable in three different ways for your best use in learning the properties of quadrilaterals. When all cards are printed in all different ways, it makes a total of 54 flash cards. Included are a UK including the word Trapezium and the US version including the word Trapezoid. Also included are the quadrilaterals square, rectangle, parallelogram, rhombus and kite. The files are organised for best use with both Double-Sided and Single-Sided printers. This is available in our Flash Card bundle, available here. You may also like: Quadrilateral Match Card Game 3D Shapes Flash Cards

This card game is a simple game of match-up. It contains quadrilateral cards and properties cards. 3 quadrilateral shapes are placed onto the table, and players take turns to place their properties down against them. The first to get rid of all their cards wins. You can also play this as a matching activity rather than as the rules we created. All properties cards can be matched to the quadrilateral cards. Quadrilaterals included are Square, Rectangle, Parallelogram, Rhombus, Trapezium/Trapeziod and Kite. The game is easily prepared thanks to easy-cut guides. A full set of rules is included and a cheat sheet just in case players get stuck.

This excel spreadsheet contains two different interactive games (Guess Who and Mind-Reader) to encourage students to think about the properties of quadrilaterals. The first game is a “Guess Who” style game. Player 1 thinks of a quadrilateral and secretly writes it down/sketches it. Player 2 (or the rest of the class) select questions to ask from a drop-down list. Player 1 answers honestly until only one shape remains. The object is to achieve this for Player 2 to achieve this in as few questions as possible. The other game is a “Mind-reader” game, played vs the computer, based on the popular online game “Akinator”. The player thinks of a quadrilateral. The computer program then asks a series of questions (each one dependent on the answer to the previous question) until it can identify the player’s chosen quadrilateral. Both games include a note regarding suggested extension questions to prompt further discussion.

A complete lesson on the interior angle sum of a quadrilateral. Requires pupils to know the interior angle sum of a triangle, and also know the angle properties of different quadrilaterals. Activities included: Starter: A few simple questions checking pupils can find missing angles in triangles. Main: A nice animation showing a smiley moving around the perimeter of a quadrilateral, turning through the interior angles until it gets back to where it started. It completes a full turn and so demonstrates the rule. This is followed up by instructions for pupils to try the same on a quadrilateral that they draw. Instructions for pupils to use their quadrilateral to do the more common method of marking the corners, cutting them out and arranging them to form a full turn. This is also animated nicely. Three example-problem pairs where pupils find missing angles. Three worksheets, with a progression in difficulty, for pupils to work through. The first has standard ‘find the missing angle’ questions. The second asks pupils to find missing angles, but then identify the quadrilateral according to its angle properties. The third is on a similar theme, but slightly harder (eg having been told a shape is a kite, work out the remaining angles given two of the angles). A nice extension task, where pupils are given two angles each in three quadrilateral and work out what shapes they could possibly be. Plenary: A look at a proof of the rule, by splitting quadrilaterals into two triangles. A prompt to consider what the sum of interior angles of a pentagon might be. Printable worksheets and answers included throughout. Please review if you buy as any feedback is appreciated!
