What’s included in the Year 6 Area and Perimeter Homework resource and why is it useful?

Year 6 Area and Perimeter 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 area and perimeter and showing that shapes with the same area can vary in perimeter.

Developing

• Q1 circling the shape with a different total perimeter. Whole numbers only, using known multiplication facts within 12 x 12.
• Q2 finding the area of the shapes. Whole numbers only, using known multiplication facts within 12 x 12.
• Q3 finding the possible perimeter of the shape. Whole numbers only, using known multiplication facts within 12 x 12.

Expected

• Q4 circling the shape with a different total perimeter. Includes up to 2-digit by 2-digit whole numbers and some conversion between units of measure. The formula for finding area and perimeter is used.
• Q5 using the given formulas to find the missing values of the shapes. Includes up to 2-digit by 2-digit whole numbers and some conversion between units of measure. The formula for finding area and perimeter is used.
• Q6 finding the possible perimeter of the shape. Includes up to 2-digit by 2-digit whole numbers and some conversion between units of measure. The formula for finding area and perimeter is used.

Greater Depth

• Q7 circling the shape with a different total perimeter. Includes conversion between units of measure and decimal numbers up to 2 dp. The formula for finding area and perimeter is used.
• Q8 using the given formulas to find the missing values of the shapes. Includes conversion between units of measure and decimal numbers up to 2 dp. The formula for finding area and perimeter is used.
• Q9 finding the possible perimeter of the shape. Includes conversion between units of measure and decimal numbers up to 2 dp. The formula for finding area and perimeter is used.

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.
