Web Address : http://maths.crusoecollege.vic.edu.au/grF
Equipment Needed : Stiff card (a roll of corrugated cardboard is usually purchased), rulers, protractors.
Victorian Curriculum outcome : Estimate, measure and compare angles using degrees. Construct angles using a protractor.
Task description : Create a four sided hole, where one angle is 60 degrees and one is 110 degrees. Measure and report the other two angles.
Assessment options : Photographs of Golf Course Holes
Teacher notes : Students tend to make the holes too small to measure accurately: a hole should be around half the size of an A4 sheet of paper. Encourage students to use colour or even little props to make their holes a bit more interesting and creative.
