Description: Compound shapes is a great topic, but there will always be one in your class that finds it too easy. This activity is relatively short, but offers so much more in terms of rich learning. Draw in a dash of Pythagoras and geometrical reasoning (yes look carefully, it's there), this will make them think and understand that bit more.
