Want to find a fun, cross-curricular way to teach perimeter and area? This lesson fuses together the history of the layout of Ancient Roman Villas with these key maths concepts.
After an informative input on Roman villas and a reminder on how to calculate the perimeter and area of both standard and rectilinear shapes, the children are challenged to design a Roman villa using both their topic and perimeter/ area learning.
There are suggestions for giving additional support to children who may require it, and challenge for those who need to be stretched.
