improving the creation of subpolygons

HI guys! I have a macro-polygon 10x10 and I would like to divide it into 25 equal parts of width and height equal to 2. So far I have created this lines of code but I was wondering if there is a much efficient way to implement it.

pgon = polyshape([0 0 10 10],[10 0 0 10]);
plot(pgon);
p(1) = rectangle('position', [0,0,2,2] );
p(2) = rectangle('position', [2,0,2,2] );
p(3) = rectangle('position', [4,0,2,2] );
p(4) = rectangle('position', [6,0,2,2] );
p(5) = rectangle('position', [8,0,2,2] );
p(6) = rectangle('position', [0,2,2,2] );
p(7) = rectangle('position', [2,2,2,2] );
p(8) = rectangle('position', [4,2,2,2] );
p(9) = rectangle('position', [6,2,2,2] );
p(10) = rectangle('position', [8,2,2,2] );
p(11) = rectangle('position', [0,4,2,2] );
p(12) = rectangle('position', [2,4,2,2] );
p(13) = rectangle('position', [4,4,2,2] );
p(14) = rectangle('position', [6,4,2,2] );
p(15) = rectangle('position', [8,4,2,2] );
p(16) = rectangle('position', [0,6,2,2] );
p(17) = rectangle('position', [2,6,2,2] );
p(18) = rectangle('position', [4,6,2,2] );
p(19) = rectangle('position', [6,6,2,2] );
p(20) = rectangle('position', [8,6,2,2] );
p(21) = rectangle('position', [0,8,2,2] );
p(22) = rectangle('position', [2,8,2,2] );
p(23) = rectangle('position', [4,8,2,2] );
p(24) = rectangle('position', [6,8,2,2] );
p(25) = rectangle('position', [8,8,2,2] );

Many thanks to all in advance!!

There are much easier ways to accomplish this but based on your comment in a related thread, it sounds like you don't need to display the rectangles at all.

Divide visually or computationally?

big = polyshape([0 10 10 0 0], [0 0 10 10 0]);
p = repmat(big, 5, 5); % Preallocate
edges = 0:2:10;
for x = 1:(numel(edges)-1)
    E1 = edges(x + [0 1 1 0 0]);
    for y = 1:(numel(edges)-1)
        E2 = edges(y + [0 0 1 1 0]);
        p(x, y) = polyshape(E1, E2);
    end
end
figure
plot(big)

figure
plot(p(1:2:25), 'EdgeColor', 'k')

Note that by the way I constructed the elements of p, the first one is in the lower-left corner.
