Instructional Ideas

• Have kids store the reference pages in a math journal
• Laminate the pages and keep them for reference in a math center
• Let kids measure the perimeter and area of other objects in the classroom

Classroom Considerations

• Color is a little dark; some diagrams might be difficult to read unless you print in color
• Use a separate answer sheet (worksheet does not provide space for answers)

Pros

• Variety of shapes and exercises help to reinforce the concept

Cons

• None
