Year 6 Maths Summer Block 1 focuses on shape and angles, including missing angles, triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, circles and 3D shapes. Aligned with the Year 6 National Curriculum and White Rose Maths progression, pupils apply angle facts and geometric properties to increasingly challenging problems.
Across the block, pupils classify, measure and calculate angles, find missing angles in different shapes and explore vertically opposite angles. They also investigate circles, draw 2D shapes accurately and explore nets of 3D shapes.
Summer Block 1 forms part of the Maths Masters Year 6 Summer sequence. Explore the full term to see how angles, shape properties and geometric reasoning fit into the wider Year 6 maths progression.

Our Year 6 shape and angles resources help pupils develop geometric reasoning through angles, triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, circles and 3D shapes. Pupils measure and calculate angles, use known angle facts and apply shape properties to find missing values.
The block includes Year 6 angles worksheets, teaching slides and activities covering angle classification and measurement, vertically opposite angles and missing angles. Pupils find unknown angles in triangles, quadrilaterals and polygons and use geometric facts to explain their reasoning.
Pupils identify and calculate with the radius, diameter and circumference of circles, including the relationship between radius and diameter. They also draw 2D shapes using given dimensions and angles and explore nets of 3D shapes.
