Estimating the Mean State Area

Develop young mathematicians' knowledge of two- and three-dimensional shapes with this geometry workbook. From learning about the classifications of different shapes and figures to calculating their area, perimeter, and volume, this...

 Introduce learners to what factoring represents and it's relationship to a square with a resource about factoring and the method of area models. The questions are scaffolded to begin with introductory questions and eventually have...

Leave no student behind with this differentiated geometry unit on perimeter and area. Over the course of five lessons, young mathematicians explore these foundational concepts through a series of self-selected hands-on activities and...

Sliding over a corner makes a rectangle. The resource demonstrates why the formula of the area of a parallelogram works. As part of a larger playlist on basic geometry, the video works examples dealing with parallelogram areas.

What a find! Here is a lesson, designed to meet sixth grade math Common Core standards, that focuses on the calculation of different measures of center for the scores from a penalty shoot-out competition. An independent...

While the lesson focuses on right triangles, this activity offers a great way to practice the area of all triangles through an interactive webpage. The activity begins with the class taking a square paper and cutting in in half; can they...

Using Google SketchUp, learners draw a model of their bedroom. They begin by measuring the dimensions of their bedroom, inputting this information into the software program, and calculating perimeter and area. This is an interesting and...

The asteroid is getting closer and the question is whether the state of Alabraska is large enough for the shelter calculated in the previous activity. Teams determine the scale of their project and then use the scale on the map to...

You mean it's just average? Provide the definition of the mean of a set of data with a concept video. The instructor works three problems that use the concept of the mean. Each problem increases in difficulty from finding a basic average...

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...
