Having looked online at various area and perimeter questions, i felt they were all too similar, with very little problem solving/investigation skills being used. So, I decided to create these. They are different from other activities i found, and i feel fit brilliantly with the new curriculum.
I created these resources myself, and have used them in a class where i have got children from every year in ks2. They love problem solving and it was a hit in my class.

A nice alternative to White Rose and similar resources! We used the problems as a discussion point in class and children really enjoyed the challenge. Thanks.

After that, children are challenged to answer a range of reasoning and problem-solving questions related to finding the perimeter of polygons. This lesson supports the year 5 national curriculum aim, 'Measure and calculate the perimeter of composite rectilinear shapes in centimetres and metres'.
Look for alternate ways to calculate perimeter P = L + L + W + W and P = 2L + 2W, which shows that both the length and width are doubled then added together. An alternative version of this rule is P = 2 (L + W), where students first add the length and width then multiply the result by two (double). Teaching and learning summary: Use explicit ...
