Checking your access...

This Teaching & Learning Program is designed for Grade 3 & 4 students.

It includes 5 days of differentiated lesson plans with:

  • Learning Intentions & Success Criteria aligned to NSW and Australian curriculum outcomes

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
