Square numbers are formed by building square patterns as follows:
Draw these shapes or use the times tables to continue the sequence.
Square numbers are formed when we multiply a number by itself.
Here are the first ten square numbers:
1 x 1 = 1
2 x 2 = 4
3 x 3 = 9
4 x 4 = 16
5 x 5 = 25
6 x 6 = 36
7 x 7 = 49
8 x 8 = 64
9 x 9 = 81
10 x 10 = 100
Learn at least the first ten square numbers, if you possibly can!
1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100.....
Why not write them down a few times and then test yourself by doing it again, without looking?!
