This resource for Key Stage Two and Key Stage Three students involves extracting and interpreting information presented in tables, graphs and charts. Students investigate how activity and calorie intake are related and design their own calorie diary. Students develop skills in interpreting bar charts and pie charts...

A STEM teaching and learning resource that explores engineering through the technology we communicate and connect with.

This resource consists of seventeen work cards each requiring students to investigate some aspect of area and perimeter of shapes. Associated with each card is a student help sheet and comprehensive teacher notes detailing assumed knowledge for each task, the purpose of...

This matching exercise consists of six shapes, six perimeters and six areas . The shapes are an isosceles triangle, a square, a compound shapes made from two rectangles and compound shapes made from a rectangle and a triangle. Dimensions are provided on the diagrams of the shapes, however, in some cases extra...

Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these resources are aimed at mathematics practitioners.

Sessions in this resource look at:

• Area and perimeter (creating connections between topics)
• Area and perimeter (exposing and discussing common misconceptions)
•...

These 20 instant maths ideas, ideal for use as starter questions, extension question or probing questions to assess understanding, require students to explore the perimeters of rectangles which have the same area, convert between different units, investigate Pick’s theorem, explore the four colour theorem,...

This resource consists of two interactive excel files.

Area and Perimeter: Algebraic, Rectangles
The first two sheets...

This SMILE resource contains three packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of area and perimeter, from calculating area by counting squares to finding the formula for the area of a trapezium.

Area and Perimeter pack one ...

This resource bank consists of 19 activities exploring and investigating different area and perimeter. The activities include: • Investigations using a tangram • Measuring the areas of composite shapes made from rectangles and triangles • Investigating the link between the dimensions of a rectangle and the size of...

This collection contains resources from the website 1001mathproblems.com by Sian Zelbo. Areas and perimeters are presented in different contexts such as puzzles and games. In addition, there are several problems that require spatial reasoning. There are often several different ways to tackle the puzzles. The...

This sub-collection of materials from the dy/dan collection contains three resources that bring mathematical storytelling to the classroom in the context of ‘area of a circle’. Resources comprise:

• Act One: a video or photograph to provide a ‘hook’ to the problem

• Act Two: further...

The mathematical topics required to solve the puzzles are areas of triangles and rectangles. The shapes are combinations of triangles and rectangles, with some areas and some distances marked. The challenge is to calculate the missing dimensions. The puzzles were inspired by Naoki Inaba’s ‘area maze puzzles’. This...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 9B which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the second half of year 9.

Area, perimeter and volume covers: a review of the names and shapes of common 2D shapes; areas of special shapes such as circle, triangle, parallelogram and composite shapes; the...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 7A which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the first half of year 7. This resource covers: area of shapes drawn on a grid, area and perimeter of a square area and perimeter of a rectangle, area of compound shapes and area of a triangle. The initial file...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of arithmetic, often used in the field of engineering. They include fractions and their associated arithmetic, calculations involving surds, using standard form, as well as understanding and drawing the graph of a function.
