Write an alternative ending to the video in which the robot goes into the ‘factory’. Why does he decide to go inside? What does he find? Who does he meet? Does he regret going inside? Rewatch the video if necessary and include details from the film to make your alternative ending plausible.

Maths No problem

Lesson Objective
To be able to solve problems involving angles in a circle.

Have a go at the In Focus task on page on P138 of Textbook 6B – Chapter 12 lesson 7. You will need to know what the internal angles of a circle add up to. Do you remember what the angles in a straight line add up to? Use your maths revision books to help and don’t forget to use any angles you are already given – including right angles – to help you.

When you’ve had a go at the In Focus task, look at the Let’s Learn section on pages 138/139. Read it through carefully so that you understand how to work out any of the missing angles you were not able to find.
