Fourth and fifth graders make a protractor and identify various angle types. In this protractor and angle lesson, learners make their own protractor and use it to measure a variety of angles. They complete worksheets while identifying the different types of angles. They draw three angles to be measured by a partner before the teacher assesses their work for accuracy. You will appreciate how well-written the lesson plan is.
