KS2 area maths bingo / lotto activities for revision of finding area of squares, rectangles and right-angled triangles: 10 game boards and 60 cards are included in this differentiated pack, originally designed for an upper Key Stage 2 class (Year 5 and Year 6 - Y5 / Y6). There are 5 boards and 30 cards in two sets. ALL ANSWERS AND INSTRUCTION PAGE INCLUDED. Each child or pair has a board with 6 area answers on it. The cards feature 2D shapes with lengths and breadths marked on, which the children use to work out the area. Children have a board each or per pair. I recommend having one area shape card turned over at a time and all players working out if it matches the area answer on their board. Could be used as a fun starter, revision, early finisher activity etc. BLACK AND WHITE versions of the cards also included. PDF format. In Scotland, this suits Second Level Maths, Primary 6 and 7.
Differentiation: The one-star version has more simple calculations to work out in centimetres. The two-star version has more challenging calculations and includes some conversion between centimetres and metres.
Calculations can be done mentally or with a little working out on a mini whiteboard or scrap of paper. Answer cards are included for pupil self-checking or to help teachers assess. The cards can also be used separately from the bingo game, with individuals or pairs working out the area and checking. They could perhaps time themselves to see how many they can correctly answer in 5 or 10 minutes. Or small groups could compete against each other to get the answer first, scoring a point if they manage it.
If you don’t need to use both versions of the bingo / lotto game at the same time, I recommend printing the boards back to back to save on card and laminating pouches. If using both sets of cards, I suggest printing them on different coloured card to help keep them separate.
