Apply area concepts to help farmers and settle county disputes. Scholars use a given diagram and information about an insecticide spraying campaign to determine the monetary benefit to farmers. They then decide which of two counties has...

The objective of this activity is to find the percent of the area of a two squares overlapping. Mathematicians find the ratio of area for the part that overlaps to the rectangle formed. The final answer is a percent as a rate per 100....

Explore relationships between perimeter and area. Learners compare the measurement units of gligs and crocs. They use a given perimeter and area as well as specific measurement relationships to determine the scale of gligs to crocs.

Get creative juices flowing when you allow groups to figure out a procedure for how to find the area of squares and rectangles. They may use the individual patchwork blocks, or they may design one using the Design Template.

Plan a dinner party. Using a book by Marilyn Burns as a context, pupils learn about the relationships between area and perimeter and surface area and volume. The hands-on activities have learners rearrange tables and cut up meatballs to...

Practice finding the area of squares and rectangles. Complete with a grid for third graders to measure each side, this resource will be helpful. Though the shapes vary in size, they all have four sides to make measurement easy. Pupils...

In this geometry worksheet, students describe the effect of a proportional change on the perimeter or circumference and area of the given circles or quadrilaterals.  The one page worksheet contains ten problems.  Answers are...

If you are teaching fractions to elementary learners this year, this Singapore Math presentation is essential to your curriculum. It addresses several basic fractions concepts in conceptual terms and figures, making each idea accessible...

Sixth graders explore characteristics of similar objects. Using attribute blocks, they explore the ratios of the perimeter, area and side length in similar shapes. They calculate and compare the area of shapes.

In this area worksheet, students compute the area of each of ten specified shapes. Seven of the shapes are quadrilaterals, one is a circle, and two shapes are triangles.

Students solve problems by finding the perimeter and area of an enclosed area. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between the area and the perimeter. They see how they relate and how to use it to maximize an enclosed area.

In this geometry worksheet, students use a grid to draw 3 different rectangles that have an area of 20 square units and determine the perimeter of each rectangle. They draw and answer questions related to the relationships and uses of...

In this perimeter and area worksheet, 9th graders solve 17 various types of problems, mostly word problems related to determining the area or perimeter of a geometric shape. They also determine the area and perimeter of shaded portions...

In this area and perimeter worksheet, students are given the equations to find the perimeter and area of objects. They practice finding the perimeter by measuring the sides of given objects and adding them together. They find the area of...

In this areas by dissection worksheet, learners find the area of given composite figures. This three-page worksheet contains examples, explanations, and 16 problems. Answers are provided on page three.

Ninth graders demonstrate application of area, surface, and volume. They apply formulas to a model of the classroom so they can determine the volume and surface area of the classroom.

Gardens seem to be the go-to for area and perimeter word problems. In this assignment, gardening consultants advise Terry, who is helping his parents plan for planting. They draw the outline of a garden on a grid and then perform...

Students investigate the average value of a function given different interval values. In this calculus lesson, students explore word problems and apply their knowledge of average value to find the answer. They apply previous knowledge to...

Activate your geometer's minds with area calculations, some of which are tricky. First, they solve five word problems dealing only with rectangular shapes. The next five use irregular shapes with side measurements given. Scholars solve...

Third graders engage in an enrichment lesson exploring the concepts of area and perimeter. They construct new pentominoes that are 3 times the size of normal ones and then identify the area and perimeter measurements. They then create a...

These squares and rectangles have length and width measurements with decimals; can young geometers determine the exact perimeter of each? Using a step-by-step example as guidance, they show work to find the perimeter of each of these...

There's a reason this worksheet is done in groups! Tricky word problems give geometry scholars a challenge as they use prior knowledge about shapes to find the area and perimeter given a few measurements. Students will enjoy discovering...

In this geometry worksheet, students solve 10 problems regarding area, scale factors, and circumference. Students, in 3 of the problems, are given the circumference and asked to work backwards to find missing information.

In this area instructional activity, students calculate the area of 3 squares and 3 rectangles. A reference web site is given for additional activities.
