What’s included in the Year 5 Area of Compound Shapes Homework resource and why is it useful?

Year 5 Area of Compound Shapes 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 calculating the area of compound shapes in mm, cm and m, including combined areas and problems.

Developing

• Q1 calculating the area of compound shapes to find the two shapes with the matching area. Includes whole measures of the same unit (cm).
• Q2 identifying whether the given area is true or false. Includes whole measures of the same unit (cm).
• Q3 solving the word problem. Includes whole measures of the same unit (m).

Expected

• Q4 calculating the area of the compound shapes to find the total area when the two shapes are combined. Includes whole measures of different units (mm and cm).
• Q5 identifying whether the given area is true or false. Includes whole measures of different units (mm and cm).
• Q6 solving the word problem. Includes whole measures of different units (cm and m).

Greater Depth

• Q7 calculating the area of the compound shapes to find the total area when the three shapes are combined. Includes measures of different units (cm and m) up to 1 decimal place.
• Q8 identifying whether the given area is true or false. Includes measures of different units (cm and m) up to 1 decimal place.
• Q9 solving the word problem. Includes measures of different units (cm and m) up to 1 decimal place.

How do our maths homework resources work?
