Area and Perimeter






Area and Perimeter are concepts that many children find extremely difficult. http://www.bgfl.org/bgfl/custom/resources_ftp/client_ftp/ks2/maths/perimeter_and_area/index.html

explains these concepts clearly in a step by step way that is easily understood by children.

Click on the shape of the concept, namely area or perimeter. Click on the shape that appears next and the programme will explain how to calculate the area or perimeter. Click on next and choose from 3 levels.
When you have completed the level you can go back to the menu page by clicking on the Menu page button.
Because this programme has three levels it guides the children from simple examples to those that are quite tricky, including compound shapes.
