Level Ups: Angle Relationships Review Activity 8th Grade Math

Level Ups are a fun way for your students to practice or review 8th grade angle relationships in triangles and parallel lines cut by a transversal. Aligned to the common core standards, this Level Ups activity includes 5 differentiated tasks that increase in rigor, covering:

• Triangle Angle Sum Theorem
• Alternate interior angles
• Alternate exterior angles
• Corresponding angles
• Same side interior angles
• Same side exterior angles
• Exterior angles of a triangle

The task cards begin with pre-requisite skills of measuring & naming angles, and working with complementary, supplementary, and vertically opposite angles, then "level up" all the way to finding multiple unknown angles in a large diagram involving parallel lines.

Students start at level zero and work their way up to level 4, giving them accurate feedback on what they have mastered, and what they still need to work on. This lesson works as a great way to review angle relationships, or as preparation for an upcoming assessment.

This activity includes:

• Suggested activity instructions (based on how I run this in my classroom).
• Five levels with 6 - 10 questions each
• Complete answer keys for each level.

My students love "Level Up Day" in my own classroom, and the activity works great as independent practice, a pairs activity, or even group work. I also use this when I need a majority of students working independently while I pull a small group for intervention.

If you enjoy this activity, please check out my other Level Up products, or my Team Target Review series, which encourages group work and rich math discussion.
