In this perimeter and area of complex figures practice worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

Elementary math classes calculate the area of a shape and explain the correlation between the size of the perimeter and the areas that can be contained within that perimeter. They also explain the effect the shape of the perimeter has on...

Class members investigate rectangles on the coordinate plane. They determine the length of line segments in the coordinate plane with the same x-coordinate or same y-coordinate and then solve geometric problems involving perimeter...

It's time for scholars to show what they know about coordinate planes with a collection of three assessments. The exams' objectives include plotting points on a single grid, measuring using the distance formula, and identifying...

When did letters become the same as numbers? Scholars learn about substituting numbers for letters to evaluate algebraic expressions in the seventh part in a series of 36. The instructional activity focuses on expressions related to...

In this calculating perimeter worksheet, learners find the perimeter of shaded areas shown on grids, writing perimeter in units. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

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

Third graders understand the perimeter by units and now find perimeter by addition. In this perimeter lesson, 3rd graders relate their prior knowledge to adding the sides of the perimeter by answering a series of questions.

Sixth graders fill out worksheets to find the perimeter and area of rectangles. In this perimeter and area lesson plan, 6th graders color in the area and measure the perimeters.

Students use their knowledge of area and perimeter to design a fictitious garden fence. In this area and perimeter lesson, students design a garden fence with a set perimeter. They are given the cost per foot of the fence, and determine...

Learners explore area and perimeter through coordinate geometry using student literature, hands-on manipulatives, and the Internet.

Learners analyze characteristics and properties of two- and three-dimensional geometric shapes and develop mathematical arguments about geometric relationship

Students find the area and perimeter of rectangular figures. They use this information to find patterns and discover relationships between area and perimeter. Students apply and explain formulas relating to perimeter, area, and volume.

Students solve real world problems involving area and perimeter in this unit culminating activity.

Graphing paper, pencil, ruler, protractor, and compass, all get replaced or supplemented with this dynamic geometry application. Here, you can create, move, and scale many different shapes, as well as, explore and change their properties...

Where this lesson plan idea is lacking in materials, it makes up for with creativity! Using "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" as the background, mathematicians plot points on a coordinate grid to create props for the story. The polygons...

Students practice graphing perimeters using graphing paper. They use different shapes with the same area to determine which shapes have the greatest perimeter. In groups, they make observations and record them on newsprint.

For this subscription-based activity, algebra learners model changes in the length and width of a rectangle to determine the maximum area possible for a given perimeter and solve several application problems involving area, included in...

Eighth and ninth graders solve and graph 42 different problems that include writing various equations and graphing them on a grid. First, they create a table for each equation and graph it on a grid locating the x-and y-intercepts. Then,...

Students create a mini city using proportions that fit a model human they construct using tin foil. They plan the city including a library, sports arena, living spaces, parks and businesses. When constructing the paper buildings, they...

In this quadratic equations activity, 8th graders solve and complete 7 various types of problems. First, they find the area for each rectangle with a given perimeter. Then, students describe the shape of the graph and use the equation to...

Students explore geometry by participating in a school measuring activity. In this perimeter lesson, students discuss the techniques and methods used in order to measure a large perimeter or geometric figure. Students utilize grid paper,...

In this measurement lesson, students follow the instructions to draw a sandbox on a grid. Students also respond to 2 short answer questions regarding the area question.

In this Geoboard House worksheet, students copy a drawing of a house made on grid paper. Students may also create the shape using a geo board and rubber bands.
