Perimeter and Area (Year 6)

In KS2 Maths, children learn about perimeter and area. Year Six students figure out the perimeter of shapes like squares, triangles, and rectangles. They also tackle the area of a square, a right-angled triangle, a rectangle, or an L-shape. Converting between mm², cm², and m² becomes a breeze. Now, they explore 3D shapes and how to find their area.

Area is the size of a 2D or 3D shape's surface. For a 3D shape, add the area of each face together. Calculating each face's area is similar to 2D shapes. This Perimeter and Area quiz is all about 2D shapes' perimeter and area, and 3D shapes' surface area.

Take this quiz if you're 10-11 years old and discover what you know about area and perimeter in KS2 Maths.
