This maths scheme of work for Key Stage Two gets the children to identify, record and compare the surface areas of a range of different rectilinear and irregular shapes by counting their matching numbers of squares. The class can suggest and explain how to describe and classify different shapes by their surface areas.

Identify, record and compare the surface areas of a range of different rectilinear and irregular shapes by counting their matching numbers of squares

Lesson One : Shape Areas

Compare and describe square and rectangular shapes by the difference in their surface areas

Lesson Two : Shape Squares

Identify and explain the importance of using the same sized squares when measuring the surface area of a shape

Lesson Three : Area Match

Select and record examples of different rectilinear shapes with the same area by counting their matching number of squares

Lesson Four : Letter Areas

Measure and record the shape of different letters of the alphabet by counting their matching number of squares

Lesson Five : Area Squiggles

Practise identifying the area of different irregular shapes by counting their matching number of full and half squares
