In this Year 6 Shapes - Same Area Teaching PowerPoint, pupils will recap finding the area of rectangles and rectilinear shapes. They will then use this knowledge to compare the areas of shapes, noting that even when shapes look very different, they can have the same area. Finally, they will consider using factor pairs as an efficient way to identify shapes with equal areas.

The learning is broken into Let’s Learn sections, where new learning and vocabulary is modelled and Let’s Practise sections, where pupils immediately apply what has been taught in small sections.

To deepen understanding, this resource includes a reasoning question and a problem solving question to give pupils the opportunity to apply knowledge in new contexts.

The final slide also provides links to other resources for this step so don't forget to check those out.
