WALT: create a garden with a pool using square units.
I had plenty of fun during this activity. We learned the concept of area. I thought this was extremely interesting because we used the prices of real objects. I found how expensive pools are to build. I think this would be most described as easy for me because as a class, we worked out how much our pools costed. We also used a calculator to help with the multiplication.
