Perimeter & Area Years 4–6 Maths Unit Bundle

Teach perimeter and area as a connected measurement progression with five complete Years 4–6 maths resources. This bundle combines year-specific perimeter and area units with a flexible Years 5–6 area unit for composite classes, differentiation, reteaching and extension.

Build students' understanding from calculating the distance around regular, irregular and compound shapes to measuring the space inside rectangles, composite shapes and triangles. Practical garden, fencing, mapping, classroom-design and grid contexts help students select efficient strategies, use appropriate units and explain their reasoning.

The Year 4 and Year 5 perimeter units provide explicit teaching, games, design challenges, printable practice and assessment. The Year 5 and Year 6 area units progress from square-unit models and rectangle formulas to composite shapes, hectares, triangle area and area-perimeter reasoning. The additional Years 5–6 area unit supports mixed-age classes and gives teachers a distinct differentiated pathway through the same core concepts.

LEARNING FOCUS

• Measure and calculate perimeter using appropriate metric units.
• Find missing side lengths and solve perimeter problems.
• Calculate rectangle and square area using square units and formulas.
• Decompose composite rectangles and compare area with perimeter.
• Work with hectares and large-area contexts.
• Calculate triangle area using base and perpendicular height as a Year 6 extension.
• Apply measurement strategies to authentic design and problem-solving contexts.

CLASSROOM USE

Teach the resources as a Years 4–6 measurement progression, select the year-specific unit that matches your class, or use the Years 5–6 resource alongside the separate area units for composite classes, intervention, consolidation and extension. The collection also suits maths rotations, homework, revision and assessment preparation.
