National Curriculum Objectives

Mathematics Year 5: (5M7b) Calculate and compare the area of rectangles (including squares), and including using standard units, square centimetres (cm2) and square metres (m2) and estimate the area of irregular shapes

Differentiation:
Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support finding the area of compound shapes involving whole measurements of the same unit (cm or m).
Expected Questions to support finding the area of compound shapes involving whole measurements of different units (mm and cm; cm and m).
Greater Depth Questions to support finding the area of compound shapes involving measurements of different units (mm and cm; cm and m) up to 1 decimal place.

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Problem Solving)
Developing Investigate different compound shapes that comply with a given set of criteria. Using whole lengths of the same unit (mm or cm only).
Expected Investigate different compound shapes that comply with a given set of criteria. Includes whole lengths of mm and m.
Greater Depth Investigate different compound shapes that comply with a given set of criteria. Includes lengths of m and cm up to 1 decimal place.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Problem Solving)
Developing Find missing lengths for both shapes using the criteria given. Using whole lengths of the same unit (mm or cm only).
Expected Find missing lengths for both shapes using the criteria given. Using whole lengths of different units (mm and cm; cm and m).
Greater Depth Find missing lengths for both shapes using the criteria given. Using lengths of different units (mm and cm; cm and m) up to 1 decimal place.

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning)
Developing A compound shape and the possible area is provided. Pupils to decide if the area is correct or not and provide evidence for their answer. Using whole lengths of the same unit (mm or cm only).
Expected A compound shape and the possible area is provided. Pupils to decide if the area is correct or not and provide evidence for their answer. Using whole lengths of different units (mm and cm; cm and m).
Greater Depth Find a missing area of a compound shape where the lengths for the missing shape are unclear. Using lengths of different units (mm and cm; cm and m) up to 1 decimal place.
