    This 50-minute lesson plan aims to teach upper primary students about square metres. Students will start with a math warm-up quiz involving multiplication questions to introduce the topic. Then, students will measure classroom items and spaces using newspaper and tape to create a 1 square metre area as a visual. Students will estimate how many of their classmates can fit in the square metre space. Finally, the lesson will conclude by asking students to explain what a square metre is and how it can be useful to measure areas. The lesson incorporates Aboriginal ways of learning and aims to develop students' intellectual quality and learning environment.
