What’s included in the Year 4 Compare Areas Homework resource and why is it useful?

Year 4 Compare Areas Homework is a set of worksheets to consolidate this step after it has been taught, at home or in class. Each set has been carefully designed to help you meet each child where they are at to ensure progress for every child, not just the average child. The content includes 3 levelled worksheets and a full answer sheet, covering comparing the areas of rectangles and rectilinear shapes, including half and quarter squares.

Developing

• Q1 finding two squares or rectangles which have the same area.
• Q2 finding the pair of squares or rectangles which must swap places for the inequality symbols to be correct.
• Q3 matching three smaller squares or rectangles to larger ones to make total areas which fit the given inequality symbols.

Expected

• Q4 finding two rectilinear shapes which have the same area.
• Q5 finding the pair of rectilinear shapes which must swap places for the inequality symbols to be correct.
• Q6 matching three of four smaller rectilinear shapes to larger ones to make total areas which fit the given inequality symbols.

Greater Depth

• Q7 finding two rectilinear shapes which have the same area. Some parts of the shapes take up a half, quarter or three-quarters of a grid square.
• Q8 finding the pair of rectilinear shapes which must swap places for the inequality symbols to be correct. Some parts of the shapes take up a half, quarter or three-quarters of a grid square.
• Q9 matching three of four smaller rectilinear shapes to larger ones to make total areas which fit the given inequality symbols. Some parts of the shapes take up a half, quarter or three-quarters of a grid square.

How do our maths homework resources work?

Our maths homework resources are not part of our adaptive maths resources, but they can be used alongside for consolidation purposes and to give children more opportunities to practise.
