Develop pupils’ understanding of geometry with our Year 6 shape worksheets, teaching slides and structured lesson plans. Fully aligned with the White Rose Summer Block 1 small steps, this unit supports pupils in measuring, classifying and calculating angles before applying their knowledge to a range of geometric contexts.
Pupils begin by revisiting angle facts, including measuring and classifying angles, before progressing to calculating missing angles, exploring vertically opposite angles and solving problems involving angles in triangles, quadrilaterals and polygons. They then extend their understanding to circles, accurate drawing of shapes and nets of 3-D shapes. Each lesson includes differentiated worksheets, clear modelling, reasoning prompts and problem-solving tasks, all mapped to the National Curriculum and forming part of our complete KS2 Maths Masters scheme.
Our Year 6 shape worksheets and lesson resources follow the full White Rose Summer Block 1 progression. Pupils begin by measuring, classifying and calculating angles, before applying angle rules to solve problems involving triangles, quadrilaterals and polygons.
As the unit develops, pupils explore vertically opposite angles, investigate angle relationships within shapes and extend their understanding to circles, including radius and diameter. They then apply their knowledge when drawing shapes accurately and working with nets of 3-D shapes. These KS2 maths resources include differentiated worksheets, teaching slides, fluency tasks and structured reasoning activities, providing clear progression across key Year 6 geometry concepts.
