Set 1. Prints on its own sheet.
It practices composing a long rectangle from unit squares — 4 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core K.G.B.6: Put small shapes together to build bigger ones. The instruction to students is “Count the squares. Area =”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.G.B.6 — K.G.B.6, under Geometry for Kindergarten. The published standard reads: “Compose simple shapes to form larger shapes.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Build Bigger Rectangles is written for Kindergarten, typically ages 5-6. It is one of the sheets on K.G.B.6, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Yes. All 4 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
25 versions, of which 23 ask genuinely different questions — this skill does not have 25 distinct questions to give, so the rest reorder them and no two students still share a paper. Set 1 downloads all 25 as one PDF.
Yes. Build Bigger Rectangles, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
