Square Numbers and Square Roots

 

Students learn how to calculate square numbers and square roots using visualisation, written and calculator methods.

Less able students are encouraged to use a timetable to support their learning, and more able are challenged to demonstrate Lagrange's Theorem.

Differentiated Learning Objectives
  • All students should be able to calculate the first twelve square numbers using the timetable grid.
  • Most students should be able to calculate the square numbers and their roots up to 12.
  • Some students should be able to calculate the square of negative, decimals and fractions.
