K’Nex sets (with various connectors)
Protractors (optional, for measuring angles)
Rulers (optional, for additional measurement practice)
Whiteboard and markers (optional, for labeling and discussion)
Introduction to the Activity:
Explain that students will use K’Nex to build and explore different types of angles, including acute, right, obtuse, and supplementary angles.
Setting Up the Activity:
Provide each student or pair with a set of K’Nex and a workspace for building.
Optional: Provide protractors and rulers for additional measurement and accuracy.
Building Angles:
Instruct students to use the K’Nex connectors to create models of various angles:
Acute Angle: An angle less than 90 degrees (e.g., 45 degrees).
Right Angle: An angle exactly 90 degrees (using connectors to form an L shape).
Obtuse Angle: An angle greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees (e.g., 145 degrees).
Supplementary Angle: Two angles that together sum to 180 degrees (e.g., creating two angles that add up to 180 degrees).
Measuring and Labeling:
Have students measure their constructed angles using protractors if available.
Ask students to label each angle with its type and measurement, either on their models or on a whiteboard.
Discussion and Reflection:
Discuss the different angles constructed and how K’Nex helped visualize each angle type.
Review the characteristics of each angle and how they were represented in the students’ work.
Optional Extension:
Challenge students to create more complex shapes or designs using K’Nex that incorporate multiple angles and angle types.
Introduce additional concepts such as complementary angles (two angles that add up to 90 degrees) and have students build models to represent these relationships.
