Our intention this year is for Room 4 students to head outdoors every Friday, to apply their classroom leaning to some practical Maths tasks. Last Friday we took the opportunity to further develop our understanding of perimeter and area, by measuring equipment and outdoor areas, using a range of measurement tools.
If the rugby field measures 100m by 70m, what is the perimeter?
Can you work out the area using these measurements?
If it takes Mr De la Haye 15 minutes to mow 1000 square metres of lawn, how long will it take hime to mow the entire rugby field?
