A while ago I uploaded a set of resources on calculating the areas of shapes on flags, see here:
https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/areas-of-flags-6327719
A number of people messaged me asking if I had one for circles - and here is is now! I had to get creative with finding flags I could use, and I’d recommend that you have already had a lesson on Area and Circumference before this, as the questions get very challenging! Thank you to @1hannahjones for making a number of corrections and clarifications!

3 Lessons of Powerpoints and Worksheets covering the areas of Rectangles, Triangles, Parallelograms and Trapeziums. The pupils have to find areas of different colours on national flags which are all the above area, and also using other mathematical topics. You will need to write on the powerpoints quite a bit on the starters, plenaries and examples! If you like this resource then please check out my other stuff on here!

In this lesson for learners with SEN, they look at the many different types of flags around the world. Learners understand that flags do not just represent countries but also communities and organisations. Learners explore 3 individual flags (union jack, rainbow flag, and the Olympic flag) and present their findings according to ability back to the group.The notes provide language which would be appropriate for SLD SEN group.For more materials associated with this resource, please follow the links provided.
Hessian flags with precursive lettering for areas within the classroom could also be used outside. Includes:
Maths, Writing, Playdough, Construction, Small World, Investigation and Reading.
You will also need to make a booklet with the flags in. Students need to measure two sides and the included angle and use the formula for area of a triangle using sine to find the area covered by each colour on each flag.Also added older format as requested.
Waving the flag! Using the Olympic timeline the children identify the last four countries and cities to host the Summer Olympic Games. The flag for Great Britain is pulled apart to see which countries make up the Union Jack.
Dinosaur Flags Display: A series of brightly coloured bunting including lettering to spell out ‘DINOSAURS’. Includes plain dinosaur themed flags for a longer string of bunting. Makes a great addition to any dinosaur display or role play area.

GEOGRAPHY AFRICAN COUNTRIES, CAPITAL CITIES & FLAGS FLASHCARDS POSTERS an instant and comprehensive introduction to Africa, perfect for developing locational knowledge, as well as awareness of world countries and continents
Create an instant introduction to Africa and brighten up your learning environment with this set of 54 posters / flashcards showing African countries, capital cities and flags They also give your classroom a great multicultural look and feel. They are a really useful visual prompt when you are discussing world geography in general, and Africa in particular. There may be a number of countries and capital cities that students do not know, or are not aware of, so the posters help students develop their general awareness, knowledge and understanding of Africa and its geography.
Use them as flashcards to introduce and practise the countries, capitals and flags too - it’s a traditional and successful low-tech teaching method, which gives students a welcome break from the whiteboard - varying teaching methodologies in the language learning classroom is always a good idea, and I also encourage my students to take the role of the teacher too, which they find really motivating.
The posters can be displayed horizontally across a particular learning area - alphabetically works well, though non-alphabetically is perfect for a country quest activity. There are two backgrounds to choose from - world map or black wave. I always laminate my posters / flashcards, as they are far easier to use, and they do last for years, so it's definitely worth the extra prep time and expense.
Have a browse in my store for more Geography posters / flashcards, and a wide range of other geography teaching and learning materials, with special offer bundles, resource boxes, and lots of freebies too!

They are also a great visual prompt when you are discussing world geography in general, and Europe in particular. There may be a number of countries and capital cities that students do not know, or are not aware of, so the posters help students develop their general awareness, knowledge and understanding of Europe and its geography.
I’ve included a range of islands, such as the Faroe Islands, to extend students’ knowledge of Europe a little further, and I’ve also shown some countries, for example Armenia, that are often classed as belonging either to Europe or to Asia. I’ve also included two posters for some countries, such as Greece, officially known as the Hellenic Republic - you can choose either the more frequently-used Greece or the Hellenic Republic to display. The posters look great displayed horizontally across a particular learning area - alphabetically works well, though non-alphabetically is perfect for a country quest activity!
