Area - week 6

Area is the total number of square units inside of a shape   

Builders use area to build houses and pools. 
We use columns and rows : columns mean 'come on down ' and rows means 'right across' to measure area.

Example : 
5 x 3 =15 square units
length x width = area

When writing a summary, keywords can give people ideas and they also give information.

Here is an example of a sentence: 
A moa is a bird, it is extinct.

Bush Moa.
