Polygon Perimeters

Peruse these perimeter word problems with beginning geometers, possibly projecting it as an all-class warm up. There are three scenarios here, each with a visual. Scholars determine the perimeter of a swimming pool, find the missing...

If you're looking for some perimeter practice problems for beginners, you've found them! Learners reference an example that takes them through the steps of finding the perimeter of a square or rectangle. Then, they complete nine on their...

Students explore perimeter and area of regular and irregular polygons. They experiment with color squares and create different arrangements using the same number squares. Then they compare the area and perimeter measurements of each.

Can your scholars find the perimeter of Peter's square of gold? They examine the shape and are given it's four equal side measurements in millimeters. Learners solve for the perimeter and should be reminded to include units in their...

Evaluate young mathematicians' understanding of area and perimeter with this series of three assessment tasks. Challenging students to not only calculate the area and perimeter of irregular shapes, but to explain in writing their...

Young mathematicians build an understanding of area and perimeter with their own two hands in a series of interactive geometry lessons. Through the use of different math manipulatives, children investigate the properties of...

What a fantastic resource! The class practices finding the area and perimeter of various regular and irregular shape by first counting the grid squares inside each shape, and then by using the traditional formula. The process is fully...

Have your class practice finding the perimeter of several given shapes. This slide show includes a definition and example of how to find perimeter along with several practice problems for the class to solve.

For your eyes only: classify the names of polygons. After providing the definition of a polygon, the video introduces the two major classifications of polygons, concave and convex. The segment of a larger playlist on geometry continues...

Define and identify the three basic forms of symmetry translation, rotation, and glides with your class. They cut out and arrange paper pattern blocks to illustrate symmetry, create a Cartesian graph, and design a rug with a symmetrical...
