CURRICULUM OUTCOMES
Australian Curriculum:
Recognise ways of measuring and approximating the perimeter and area of shapes and enclosed spaces, using appropriate formal and informal units (AC9M4M02)
NSW Curriculum:
Outcomes:
Estimates, measures and compares areas using square centimetres and square metres (MA2-2DS-03)
Content:
Area: Measure the areas of shapes using the grid structure
Measure the areas of rectangles and right-angled triangles using a square-centimetre grid overlay
Estimate the areas of shapes found in the environment using efficient strategies (non-count-by-one) with a grid overlay
Recognise that rectangles with different side lengths can have the same area
Area: Compare surfaces using familiar metric units of area
Estimate before measuring to determine the larger of 2 rectangular areas in square centimetres
Estimate before measuring to determine the larger of 2 rectangular areas in square metres
