With this Year 6 Shapes - Same Area Prior Learning resource, you can make sure your class is ready to learn about shapes that have the same area. This resource includes fluency, reasoning and problem-solving questions that cover learning from Years 4 and 5 where children counted squares to find area, used factors, and found the area of rectangles. An answer sheet is included with this resource to help make your marking a quick and easy process.

  • Find the area of rectilinear shapes by counting squares
  • Identify multiples and factors, including finding all factor pairs of a number, and common factors of two numbers
