Measurement

Room 4 has been learning a lot about Area and Perimeter so far this term.  They had another task to complete for Mrs Kaye.
We had 24 apple trees to plant in our garden.  How would we plant them in order to take up the least amount of ground from our play area?  What was the area?  Each group had 24 counters to help model the tree planting.  What do you think we discovered?

Is this array going to work?

We're on the right track.

Another planting plan.

More possible designs.

Wow, each design has the same Area!
