Partioning Rectangles WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet will give learners an opportunity to think about area and how rectangles can be partitioned in different ways. It begins by asking learners to patition using 1 by 1 squares. The rectangles are drawn on square dotty grids to make the partitioning easier. The next sections then ask for larger rectangles to be partitioned using 2 by 2 and 3 by 3 squares. The task is then exended by asking learners to partition using smaller rectangles in different orientations, learners will need tp think carefully about which way round the smaller rectangles should go.
