Students participate in an estimation activity to determine the length of a hallway or to estimate how many people can fit in the school stadium or gym.

Students explore circumference and diameter. In this math lesson, students apply their knowledge of circumference and diameter to solve mathematical riddles. Students apply this knowledge to find circumference and diameter of various...

Students measure a set of Russian dolls using the metric system. For this measurement lesson plan, students identify certain relationships between sets of measurements by measuring a set of Russian dolls and presenting their findings to...

Students explore tessellations. In this shapes and geometry lesson, students describe the attributes of many of the shapes displayed on an Elmo. Students create examples of tessellations using pattern blocks.

Pairs of geometry whizzes work together to determine which of three differently shaped cylinders will have the greatest volume. Pupils cut out the three rectangles embedded in the plan, and tape them together to form a cylinder. From...

Fourth graders construct squares and rectanges in order to help them find areas and perimeters. They gain an understanding of area and perimeter through teacher modeling and then they construct squares and rectangles.

In this rectangles worksheet, 4th graders draw a rectangle with the same area as one displayed on the worksheet and then find the perimeter of each.

Fourth graders find the perimeter of a geometric shape by adding the lengths of the sides. They find the area of a square or rectangle by counting square units. Students use multiplication to find the area of a rectangle. They estimate...

Students learn the difference between perimeter and area by watching a video and a hands on activity.

For this math worksheet, 4th graders complete a quick set of math problems where they first look at two rectangles and find the difference between the two in centimeters. Then, they compare two figures are select which fraction best...

In this math word search learning exercise, students locate and identify 18 measurement-related words in the word bank within the word search puzzle.

In this measurement words worksheet, students find measurement words in a word snake maze. Students find 6 words.

In this formulae worksheet, students review how to find an expression for the perimeter of a shape, then find expressions for perimeter of 2 given triangles.

In this perimeter and area learning exercise, students find the perimeter and area of shapes with right angles. Students complete 9 problems total.

Young geometers explore relationships between units of measure and objects. Three activities provide varied opportunities to practice. Learners calculate the volume of two cylinders made by rolling a piece of paper vertically and...

Pupils design a rectangular box without a lid that has the largest possible volume using the supplied sheet of centimeter graph paper. They work in groups to construct different size boxes to determine the largest possible volume and...

In this integers and measurement worksheet, students solve 24 various types of problems as defined. They reduce all fractions to lowest terms. Then, students draw a diagram and show the measurements to the proper power and pi for the...

For this cylinder worksheet, students compare three different cylinders to experiment which one has the greatest volume. Students interact with rectangles as they experiment with the cylinders.

Fourth graders, acting as foresters, determine timber volumes as sawtimber or pulpwood for marketing. They find the marketable value of a tree using its diameter and volume.

Junior geometers discover that polygons can be decomposed into triangles and that the number of triangles can be determined by a rule. Note that the Geometer’s Sketchpad® software is required to carry out all components of this...

Fourth graders find the area and perimeters of squares and rectangles using a calculator to check their multiplication. They use the appropriate formulas to find the area and perimeter of the given geometric shapes.

Fourth graders work in a group of 4 to make rectangle with a 12m length of string. They discuss its perimeter and how they would calculate its area. Then another group of 4 make another rectangle and estimate if the area would be greater...

Pupils are given the task of designing an apartment. In groups, they practice estimating the area and perimeter of different shapes. After designing their space, they apply the same formulas to solving real-world story problems.

In this elementary math worksheet, 4th graders practice solving problems for reviewing the concepts of number sentences, numeration, and geometry.
