Area Builder
Description

๐Ÿ” Explore
Build custom 2D figures using colourful blocks to discover the relationship between area and perimeter. Create shapes on one or two boards and test your skills in the levelled game.

๐ŸŽฎ Try It
โ€ข Drag unit squares from the drawer onto the grid and watch the Area and Perimeter numbers update.
โ€ข Turn on Dimensions to see the length of each outer edge displayed around your shape.
โ€ข Rearrange the exact same blocks into a long line and then into a compact square to compare their perimeters.

๐ŸŽฏ Completion Goal
Complete all 6 challenges in the selected level.

๐ŸŒ Real-World Connection
When fencing a backyard, building a compact square garden enclosure requires less fence wire than building a long, narrow run of the exact same planting area.
