Description
Practice classifying isosceles, equilateral, right, acute triangles and more with this engaging, colorful note-taking math wheel format!
- Introduce or review the types of triangles with this note-taking and practice activity.
What is a math wheel? It's a graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern
Students can keep the math wheels in their interactive notebooks all year as a personal anchor chart/reference sheet.
- You can even enlarge the math wheel and use it as a type of triangles anchor chart!
The sections of the types of triangles wheel include:
1) Equilateral
2) Isosceles
3) Scalene
4) Acute
5) Obtuse
6) Right
- There is room in each section for students to draw additional triangles or add additional notes.
This triangles resource includes:
1) THREE versions of the student wheel
- ‘Open’ for students to write notes - this version is most flexible, space-wise
- ‘Fill-in’ notes, to help students’ use of space
- Pre-filled notes; answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on this version
⭐️Each version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher key/wheel with completed notes and examples
3) Colored sample of wheel
4) PowerPoint file with two editable templates ~ you can add text to make your own math wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use resource:
1) Notes sections and examples
2) Guided or independent practice: 10 sets of side lengths/angle measures around the circle, for students to practice identifying the types of triangles
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned versions:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide:-)
What teachers are saying about this resource:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This was such a fun and engaging activity. My students really enjoyed it! Such a great activity to include when doing small groups/centers!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Students loved this resource! They loved being able to fill in the guided portion of the wheel, find angles to solve and continue to use it. Great resource for students and will definitely use it again in the future.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I loved this resource and so did my students. Great for notes and for reference when working on knew material.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This served as our notes for the types of triangles. It was engaging and students continued to use it as a reference after the fact. Thank you!”
