Students are introduced to the concept of square and cube numbers through the use of diagrams of volumes and areas.  As learning progresses students consolidate their understanding of a volume from a cube as a cube number, the area of a square as a square number and its length as a square root of its area.

Differentiated Learning Objectives

• All students should be able to recognise the first 10 square numbers and 5 cube numbers.
