Indirectly compare area
Indirectly compare the areas of two surfaces that cannot be moved or superimposed
Predict which of two similar shapes has the larger area and check by covering
Measure areas using uniform informal units
Explore area using uniform informal units to cover the surface in rows or columns without gaps or overlaps
Measure area by selecting and using appropriate uniform informal units
Explain the relationship between the size of a unit and the number of units needed to measure an area
Explain why the area remains constant when units are rearranged
Record areas by referring to the number and type of uniform informal unit used
Identify any parts of units left over when counting uniform informal units to measure area
Estimate areas by referring to the number and type of uniform informal unit used and check by measuring
