3 fully-prepared resources that are ready to go!

Covers the 2014 National Curriculum's core aims - fluency, reasoning and problem solving.

The lessons have been used to secure an outstanding grading in a lesson observation with a Year 5 class.

3 lesson plans for KS2, each including a starter, a differentiated main activity, a mini plenary, an extension activity and a plenary.

All resources included within the pack, including a letter from Henry VIII and maps of Henry's gardens.

Investigation approach used to ensure deep understanding of perimeter and area.

The lessons currently centre around King Henry VIII's gardens to link to a Tudor topic, but they could easily be adapted to fit in with your topic by simply changing the main character from Henry VIII to another individual who might own a large amount of land.

The three lessons focus on different parts of King Henry VIII’s gardens:
• Lesson 1: The Knot Gardens (a perimeter investigation)
• Lesson 2: The Rose Gardens (finding the area of rectangles and rectilinear shapes)
• Lesson 3: The Stables (an investigation into the relationship between area and perimeter)

My class loved this sequence of lessons. Please leave feedback - I'd love to hear how you get on with them!
