<p>Mathematics resources for Year 5 measurement lessons include a PowerPoint focused on the concept of area. The material is designed to help students learn how to calculate the area of various shapes, starting with squares and rectangles. The approach is hands-on and visual, with students being encouraged to find the area by counting 1 cm squares within each shape. This method not only solidifies their understanding of area as a measure of space but also reinforces their counting and multiplication skills. The presentation provides clear and concise instructions, ensuring that students can work through the examples with confidence and accuracy.</p>

<p>Further exercises challenge students to apply their knowledge to more complex problems, such as finding the area of compound shapes and estimating the area of irregular shapes. To estimate, students count the squares that are more than half covered by the shape. The resources also include worksheets that encourage students to explore the area concept in depth, such as creating different squares and rectangles with the same area or solving real-world problems involving area calculations. For instance, determining the cost of carpeting a room or the number of paint tins required to cover a wall. These practical applications help students understand the relevance of mathematics in everyday life and enhance their problem-solving skills.</p>
