Area word problems using a real world context pose new mathematical challenges for students to negotiate.

Does bigger perimeter mean bigger area? Answer this question when you try this math challenge from the NCTM Math Challenges for Families series. Discover how understanding area and perimeter can be useful in real world situations.

On this interactive site students learn to estimate lengths and distances using kilometers, explain the difference between perimeter and area, and measure the volume of a 3D object by counting the cubic centimeters.

The purpose of this task is to help students differentiate between a polygon and the region inside of a polygon so that they understand what is being measured when the perimeter and area are being found. Aligns with 3.MD.D.

In this activity, students find the area and the perimeter for several geometric shapes. They also determine the surface area and volume of spheres.
