  3. Formula to find area of square is side X side.
  4. Each inner square's area is 1 sq unit.
  5. Start with a outer big square of side length 3, which gives an area of 9. Then after doing side lengths of 3-5, put up a square and say the area is 64, so what must the side lengths be? The students will know it must be 8. Do this a few times and then introduce the new notation saying that the side length for the square with area 64 is the sqrt(64) = 8, and that is along the side of the square. Similarly repeat for area 144 and write it as square root of 144 =12 on the side length. Tell them that a square root is the inverse of squaring a number.
  6. Introduce the symbols forsquare and square root.

Extending the analogy to the area of a square and its side length helps students visualize the geometric meanings of square and square roots. [Note : Disadvantage of this activity: here we can consider only positive numbers as square roots. Hence in further classes the concept of square root should be extended to negative numbers as well.]
