Detailed description

The illustration on the learning activity, ‘Scaling Up’ shows families of fish that are made up of different numbers of square tiles. Students need to calculate the number of squares each family member is made of, then use strategies to count all the fish in the village. Three sizes of fish represent a family, and students are asked to draw a fish one size bigger by scaling up. An answer sheet is provided and includes accompanying teaching notes with suggestions for supporting learning and further exploration.
