Key Facts & Information

LEARNING OBJECTIVE:

  • At the end of the lesson, the student will learn how to partition rectangles into same-sized squares by knowing the concept of dividing the shape into rows and columns.

A NOTE FOR THE TEACHER:

  • When partitioning rectangles, take note of the following:
    • Start by reminding your student that a square is a rectangle, and therefore, we can find squares inside rectangles.
    • Remember that a row navigates from left to right.
    • Remember that a column navigates from top to bottom.

THEORY:

  • Rectangles can be split into equally sized squares.
  • Squares are actually special rectangles. A square is always a rectangle, so we can say that a rectangle always has squares.
  • To divide the rectangle into same-sized squares, we must partition the rectangle into rows and columns.
  • Rows split the rectangle horizontally from left to right.
  • Columns split the rectangle vertically from top to bottom.
  • Suppose that we want to split the rectangle into 2 rows and 3 columns:
