The 7 lessons are: Lesson 1 - Perimeter of Shapes Lesson 2 -
Area of Rectangles Lesson 3 - Area of Triangles Lesson 4 - Area of Quadrilaterals Lesson 5 - Area of Trapeziums Lesson 6 - Compound Area Lesson 7 - Scale Drawing / Functional Lesson This is one of my best bundles and covering all the aspects of area, slowly and deliberately.
With a mix of skills required
including area of rectangles and triangles, throwing in one to encourage them to factorise and saturated with typical problem solving processes, ideal for getting your pupils used to the new 1 - 9 GCSE.
«And here were Japanese 11 - year olds coming up with multiple ways to derive the formula for area of a parallelogram just based on their knowledge
of area of a rectangle, and just based on cutting up or redrawing with concrete materials,» says Lewis.
They've
done area of rectangles and triangles last lesson and so I'm trying to link it to real world contexts this lesson.
Lesson 1 - Perimeter of Shapes Lesson 2 -
Area of Rectangles Lesson 3 - Area of Triangles Lesson 4 - Area of Quadrilaterals Lesson 5 - Area of Trapeziums Lesson 6 - Compound Area Lesson 7 - Scale Drawing (functional lesson) I have found over the years, that teaching these lessons over more lessons than less pays dividends!!

To find
the area of a rectangle, for example, students would be given the appropriate formula — multiply the width of the figure by the height — and then expected to practice similar problems on worksheets or homework.
If you know the length of a right - angle triangle's hypotenuse (c) and the ratio between its sides (a and b), you can work out the lengths of those sides and, consequently,
the area of the rectangle within which that triangle resides.
