Getting Dizzy!!

Angle is a way of measuring turning around.

Imagine you are standing facing 'North'. If you turn fully around once, going back to face 'North' again, you have done a full turn.

If you start from 'North' and turn 'East', you have completed a quarter turn.

This is given a special name: a right angle.

If you start from 'North' and turn to the 'South' you have completed a half turn. This is also given a special name: a straight angle.
