How the visualiser was used?
Visualiser was used to demonstrate how to use a protractor to measure a variety
of angles. Children were shown clearly where to place the protractor, where to
look on the scales and JF was able to demonstrate from his point of view how to
use the protractor. The class (as a whole) were then able to have a go
themselves and watch the technique on the screen.

The benefits of the Visualiser to teaching & learning:

• You can show the whole class at the same time
• Detailed points on the protractor are clear.
• Actual protractor demonstration is better than an interactive one on the
smart board.
• Easy to show misconceptions and common errors.
• Great way to show a clear step by step process rather than showing
individuals.
• Fun and engaging!
