We created a floor plan using squares and rectangles. We were only allowed to use these shapes as these were easy for us to calculate the perimeter and area later.
We labeled and coloured them in. Next we replicated our plan using numicon. After this we calculated the perimeter and area. This was slightly more difficult as some of our rooms were really big. We also weren't allowed to count each individual square - we had to either add or use our multiplication skills (Mr Mcintosh was really happy & surprised with how many of us could use multiplication to calculate area).
Here's a couple of finished ones below:
