Use this Year 5 Calculate Area of Rectangles Fluency Matrix resource to give your pupils further practice finding the area of rectangles.

There are six fluency questions which move in easy steps from counting squares towards using length and width to calculate area. In the final question, pupils have to find the length of two sides of a shape given the width and the area. This question is presented as a word problem.

The questions on this worksheet are split over two pages with the answers being provided on a single page.

A varied fluency resource and a reasoning and problem solving resource are also available for this small step.
