Our new favourite game

This week we have been learning about angles and how to use a protractor.

After some hestitation on Tuesday, we have now realised that angles aren't so bad and we are now starting to get the hang of them.

Here is a game that we really enjoyed today.

Banana Hunt


Olivia H was the first person to guess the angle correctly. She scored 10 banana points.

How many bananas can you score?
