Adv Unit 1 - Area

Resources for the End-of-Unit summative - 11/ 12 Sept

Here is a summary of what is in the summative (and retake) to help you prepare:

• area of parallelograms  (some with measurements given and some on a grid when they have to work out the base and height measurements )

• area of triangles

• drawing a height line on triangle when given the base

• working out the area of unusual shaped polygons by decomposing (splitting into smaller parts) or enclosing (putting a larger shape around the outside and then subtracting the additional sections).

• explaining the difference between decomposing and enclosing as strategies

• answering word problems when given measurements to solve area problems

• Comparing surface area of two 3D shapes

• Selecting nets that can be folded into a triangular prism

• Working out the volume of a cube when given the dimensions.

• Working out the area of a square when given the dimensions

• Working out the length of a square side when given the area

• Surface area of a rectangular prism when given the base, height and width

• Naming the polyhedron that can be made from a given net and working out the surface area.

As well as these resources, you can use the Math Library option in Zearn to repeat the questions from any lesson we have already completed as extra practice.
