Rows and Columns in Partitioned Rectangles #1

Explore how rectangles can be partitioned into rows and columns to create squares with this simple and inviting geometry worksheet! This second-grade math worksheet gives students practice counting rows, columns, and total squares in partitioned rectangles. Students will trace the squares in each of four unique partitioned rectangles and then write down the number of rows, columns, and total squares.

This worksheet is a great way to lay the groundwork for using arrays to solve multiplication problems, while also introducing learners to the concept of finding the area of a rectangle.
