Originally created for an interview and subsequently extended for a full lesson.
Contains a PowerPoint which guides pupils through area and perimeter, by firstly counting squares and then moving on to calculations.
2 worksheets, both similar but one has more extension questions depending on the ability of your class, these include scaffolded compound shape questions, and some questions with shapes inside shapes.
Multiple choice questions are included at the end to assess progress, as well as the answers to the worksheet.
Taking you through counting squares, to rectangle/triangles/parallelograms/trapeziums to compound shapes, circles, cuboids, prisms, sectors/arc lengths, cones, spheres and frustums (phew!). Complete with success criteria etc.
Looking for a fun, hands-on activity to practise area and perimeter this Christmas? Then, your students will enjoy colouring and cutting out presents, calculating their area and perimeter, and then stacking them to make a display for the wall.
What’s included?
Three recording sheets (square units, centimeters and inches)
Recording sheet for children that need more of a challenge
Two size options - to give you some idea of the tallest possible height, the smaller size option would reach an approximate height of 57cm/22.5in. The larger size option would reach an approximate height of 1m/3ft.
Presents with grids for square units (area only) and presents with measurements (area and perimeter)
I’ve also included two display phrases to choose from:
We’ve got area and perimeter all wrapped up!

I hope your students have fun practising their area and perimeter skills, and decorating the classroom at the same time.
A worksheet originally created for a low ability year 7 set, but could be used for key stage 2 pupils learning about area and perimeter for the first time.
All kids would love to design their dream bedroom or dream treehouse, so these area and perimeter practice activities will spark their imagination and creativity! Plus, they’ll get plenty of practice at applying concepts of perimeter and area.
There are two different design options – a dream bedroom and a dream treehouse, so you can choose one or the other, or use both. Each design comes with options for perimeter, area, or perimeter and area. Measurements include centimetres and inches, and area also includes square units.
Students choose the items they’d like to add to their dream bedroom or treehouse, draw them on the grid, then measure and record the area and/or perimeter.
Recording sheets are included but these are optional as children can easily write their answers in their workbooks if you prefer.
Just print and go!
