Area

This week we have been working on area. The students had to solve the problem 'I made a shape that had an area of 12 cubes. What might my shape have looked like?' 

Year 1 learnt that area is the size of a surface. They can measure area with no gaps or overlaps. We discovered that shapes with the same area can look different.

Check out some of the shapes that Year 1 created below.
