Area of squares and rectangles
Lesson presentations and activities
Begins with starter on perimeter and LO. Lesson proceeds to working out the area of rectangles by counting squares, coupled with tiered questions. The lesson then engages students to think of easier ways to find out the area (length x width, base x height) and then differentiates with questions. The last activities engages learners to differentiate between finding the area and perimeter of rectangles. The lesson concludes with a Bloom's Taxonomy styled plenary. PLEASE leave FEEDBACK and RATE.

Great lesson-I am a trainee teacher so is really useful for me to see how this lesson could be taught!! May have to use some of this lesson! Thankyou!!
Practice questions, homeworks and assessments
A puzzle that is ideal as a quick, rich recap on area of rectangles or as a way of using geometry to explore factors.

This is a nice little puzzle revolving around areas of rectangles, which would make a perfect starter to a lesson looking at the area of other quadrilaterals. As a challenge to those who finish first, challenge them to make their own, ensuring that it has a unique solution!
Work out the Area and perimeter of a number of rectangles and then put them in order. Students should notice that large areas do not necessarily mean larger perimeters
