What’s included in the Year 4 Perimeter on a Grid Homework resource and why is it useful?

Year 4 Perimeter on a Grid 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 finding the perimeter of rectilinear shapes on a grid, including compound shapes.

Developing

• Q1 putting five rectangles in order of shortest to longest perimeter. Shapes include internal grid lines.
• Q2 calculating the perimeter of a compound shape and as individual rectangles. Shapes include internal grid lines.
• Q3 dividing a rectangle using 1 vertical line to create 2 new rectangles. Find a shape with a perimeter greater than the stated perimeter. Includes internal grid lines.

Expected

• Q4 putting five rectilinear shapes in order of shortest to longest perimeter. Shapes include internal grid lines.
• Q5 calculating the perimeter of a compound shape and as individual rectilinear shapes. Shapes include internal grid lines.
• Q6 dividing a rectilinear shape using 1 vertical line to create 2 new shapes. Find a shape with a perimeter greater than the stated perimeter. Includes internal grid lines.

Greater Depth

• Q7 putting four complex rectilinear shapes in order of shortest to longest perimeter. Shapes do not include internal grid lines.
• Q8 calculating the perimeter of a compound shape and as individual complex rectilinear shapes. Shapes do not include internal grid lines.
• Q9 dividing a rectilinear shape using 2 vertical lines to create 3 new shapes. Find all 3 shapes with a perimeter greater than the stated perimeter. Does not include internal grid lines.

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.
