Teaching guide
Describe how perfect square numbers and square roots are linked, and use squaring and the square roots of perfect squares to solve problems.
Show a square number as the area of a square array (3 x 3 = 9), link squaring to its inverse (the square root), and learn the first perfect squares so roots of perfect squares are quick to recall.
Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
Confusing squaring with doubling (thinking 3 squared is 6), and assuming every number has a whole-number square root.
