Area - Week 6

Area is how many square units are inside a shape.

People use Area to measure land, doors, rugs and how big a pool is. 

If you don't know how to use Area you make a square or a rectangule, but I would stick with a square because it is the most easiest sharp to work with.  So when you make your square  you can count it or skip count, and after that you add them up using timetables...and there you go, you know how to do area.

Here is an e.g.
You have a square and it has six columns and four rows, so six times four = 24.

                                             

                                                                                             






Columns down
                                                                         

Rows across.
