Perimeter - Year 3 (Day 1)

Perimeter - Year 3 (3 Day Unit of Work)

This is three day unit of work (potentially 3-6 sessions) for teaching perimeter objectives in year 3. In this resource pack, you will find: Lesson plans, games, differentiated worksheets, a range of problem solving activities involving perimeter, challenging activities – for deeper understanding, answer sheets and flipcharts for whole class teaching (in ActivInspire, PowerPoint and PDF format). This pack will save you hours of planning, resourcing, differentiating, finding challenging activities and generating flipcharts all for an amazing price. Day 1 starts with revising ruler skills and then using those skills to measure 2D shapes to find their perimeters. The challenge activity tasks pupils with applying what they have learned so far to answer deeper understanding questions. The extension activity: using measuring skills to find total distances and to solve word problems. Day 2 involves the children finding perimeters of shapes where they are not drawn accurately through a fun game and then a worksheet (that can be randomised). The challenge activity – the children must answer problem solving questions using the floor plan of a house! Day 3 starts with a class problem solving activity then moves on to a large range of differentiated problem solving cards that can be stuck into books and investigated/solved.
