Area Builder - An interactive workspace in which to make shapes using square tiles with given areas and perimeters.
Level 1 - Find the perimeters and areas of rectangles
Level 2 - Find the dimensions of rectangles given their areas and perimeters
Area Mazes - These are brilliant! When you think you know the formula for the area of a rectangle these puzzles will give you quite a challenge.
Investigation - The perimeter of a rectangle is 28cm. What could its area be?
Level 1 - A reminder of the area formulas for basic shapes
Level 2 - Using letters to show how the areas of composite shapes are calculated
Level 3 - Composite shapes made up of rectangles
Level 4 - Composite shapes made up of quadrilaterals, triangles and circles
Level 5 - Real life composite area questions from photographs
Level 6 - Some puzzling composite area questions designed to challenge
Area Maze - You will love these puzzles which challenge you to find the measurement missing from composite shapes.
Level 1 - Area and perimeter of standard shapes
Level 2 - Area and perimeter of non-standard shapes
Composites Shapes When you think you know the formulas really well try this series of exercise.
