The fourth pack in the Ages 7 to 9 Maths collection, where children design a bedroom to scale: measuring length and width, choosing the right units, calculating perimeter and area, allowing for door clearance and furnishing the room within a £500 budget.

What's included

  • Room dimensions, length, width and labelling a floor plan
  • Choosing the right unit, millimetres, centimetres or metres
  • Estimating first, then measuring with a real tape measure
  • Will the bed fit, comparing furniture to wall space
  • Door clearance and why swing space changes the plan
  • Comparing bed models on size, price and floor space
  • Perimeter, the distance around the room for trim
  • Area, the surface inside the room for carpet
  • Scale drawing, 1cm on paper equals 50cm in real life
  • Furnishing the room within a £500 budget
  • Delivery fees and other costs that break a budget
  • Reviewing the final design and justifying the choices

Who it's for

Parents and carers of children aged 7 to 9 who are ready to turn measurement into real spatial problem solving.
