Use hectares and square kilometres as units of measurement for area
Recognise the need for formal units larger than the square metre
Identify situations where square kilometres and hectares are used for measuring area
Equate one hectare to the area of a square with side lengths of 100 m, ie 10 000 square metres = 1 hectare (ha)
Record areas using square kilometres and hectares
Calculate the areas of rectangles using familiar metric units
Recognise the importance of using the same units of length on the sides of rectangles to create ‘square units’
Establish the relationship between the lengths, widths and areas of rectangles
Record, using words, the method for finding the area of any rectangle
Calculate areas of rectangles in square centimetres (cm2), square metres (m2) and square kilometres (km2)
Recognise that rectangles with the same area may have different dimensions
Investigate and compare the areas of rectangles that have the same perimeter
