              Area of Compound Shapes

              Students learn how to calculate the area of compound rectilinear shapes by splitting the shapes up into two or more rectangles and then calculating the sum.
              Differentiated Learning Objectives
              • All students should be able to determine the area of a compound rectilinear shape by counting.
              • Most students should be able to determine the area of a compound rectilinear shape by calculating.
              • Some students should be able to determine possible perimeters when given the area of a compound rectilinear shape.

              Angles in Polygons

              October 16, 2019

              There are two key learning points when solving problems with angles in polygons.  The first is to understand why all the exterior angles of a polygon have a sum of 360°.  The second is to understand the interior and exterior angles appear on the same straight line. Students can be told these two facts and […]
