Maths measurement with Area

My LI is to identify the area of a rectangle and to measure it.

I learnt about Area, The Area of something is the amount of space inside of the perimeter (edges, outline, boundary). For the task we had to draw multiple playgrounds of different sizes and then we had to give them to a partner to measure the amount of squares inside the perimeter. We found the total amount of squares in the area by adding the width and the height together.

I learnt this by measuring the area of Jack’s playgrounds and writing them down on my maths book, Adding the Height and Width and creating the playgrounds with squares and rectangles.
