Understanding acute and obtuse angles can be tough for Year 1 students. These ideas need clear definitions and the ability to recognize them visually. Let’s break down some important points:

• Acute Angles:

  • These angles are smaller than 90 degrees.
  • They can be tricky to spot, especially when other angles are nearby.

• Obtuse Angles:

  • These angles are bigger than 90 degrees but smaller than 180 degrees.
  • They might be mixed up with acute angles because they can look similar.

To help students understand these angles better, using pictures, fun activities, and regular practice can really make a difference. This way, they can learn to identify these angles with confidence!
