Calculate The Area Of The Rectangle


This game is all about perimeter and area.In this game you had to calculate the area of this rectangle. The right answer is twenty. This game was easy because I could calculate the sum mentally. There was no challenge in this game because you have multiply 5 by 4. I think our teacher should give us games like this one but more challenging.

Area


WALT: use tiles to cover the lounge floor.

In our maths group we were learning about area.We had to get into pairs. We had to tile the lounge floor. The board represented the lounge floor.  Our tiles were little coloured blocks. We got a board and we had to cover the board with little blocks. It took one hundred and twenty blocks to cover the board. Other children had rectangular blocks and  covered their board much faster. But our little blocks took much longer than the other children.
