If you're a square, be the best square you can be! Young scholars develop a formula to determine the four points that make the best square that considers the area, perimeter, and other dimensions. They use their formulas to rank attempts...

Use rectangles to find distances. Given a rectangle and three associated triangles, pupils determine the area of the triangles. Scholars know the three triangles have equal areas along with the perimeter of the rectangle and two other...

There's nothing fishy about the activity. Future mathematicians design a koi pond from various three-dimensional shapes. They calculate the perimeter, area, and volume of the pond, and then create PowerPoint presentations. They also...

Let the class' knowledge of geometry soar like the kites they create. After researching the history and science of kites, learners draw up a blueprint for their own kites. They then calculate the areas and perimeters based on the scale...

If you want a bigger garden, here's a task for you. Given the perimeter of a triangular garden, scholars determine the largest possible area. They then generalize their findings and extend the idea to other polygons.

Take a swing at the task. Using their knowledge of polygons and solids, scholars design one hole of a miniature golf course. They calculate areas and perimeters, determine the cost of building the holes, make scale drawings, and create...

Give plants the best place to grow. Given constraints on plant spacing, pupils design a raised bed garden using graph paper, then calculate the perimeter, surface area, and volume. They use the provided costs of lumber and soil to...

Elevate your fifth graders' understanding of math concepts with a series of vocabulary posters. Featuring terms concerning probability and statistics, measurement, algebra, and decimal place value (and many more), the posters are...

How are your learners doing with place value? Track their skill levels with a set of math assessments. The packet includes worksheets to hand out to your class, scoring checklists, a calendar for implementation, and instructions for...

Check for understanding with a set of math assessments. Fifth graders answer questions involving multiplication and division, median and mode, rotational symmetry, and graphing.

Next time you need to repave your patio, have your scholars do all the math. They first calculate and answer questions using the area of patio blocks. Next, they determine the cheapest block to use to pave the patio.

Give the ultimate gift this holiday season: Christmas-themed math skills! Young gift givers calculate the amount of wrapping paper that should be used for a particular wrapping method.

Rescue animals in the zoo by applying math concepts. Groups of learners solve three missions involving oxygen, food, and climate control. Each group selects an animal from one of four bio-domes.

Leave all your travels needs to the math department. Pupils apply knowledge of triangles to identify a triangular path for a traveler to take. They use a given distance for the second leg of the trip and a constraint on the length of the...

Horses need exercise, too. Scholars create linear equations to model the perimeter of exercise fields for horses. They finish by solving their equations for the length and width of the fields.

In this measuring perimeters worksheet, students measure the perimeters of each rectangle to the nearest centimeter. Students solve 6 problems.

For this geometry worksheet, students calculate t he perimeter of a kite given the values of the sides and diagonals. There are 6 questions with an answer key.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders find the perimeter of scalene triangles, or triangles where the 3 sides are different lengths. There are 6 questions with an answer key.

In this online math worksheet, students find the area and perimeter of rectangles. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into difficulties. A terrific teaching tool!

In this area and perimeter worksheet set, students determine the area and perimeter of 120 rectangles when they are given the length and the width of each. They write the answers with the proper labels.

Learners consider perimeter and circumference. For this lesson on perimeter, students will determine relationships between perimeter and circumference using real life examples.

In this perimeter worksheet, students use grid paper to make as many shapes as possible using given perimeters, 4 total. Answers included on page 2.

For this perimeter worksheet, students are given perimeter and draw 3 different squares or rectangles on given grids, using those given measurements, then complete 2 related questions.

Fifth graders create math word problems. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders define perimeter and discover how to find the perimeter of a rectangle, a square and a regular polygon. Students write word problems on finding the...
