In this geometry worksheet, students calculate the areas of rectangles. They use the formula for area of a rectangle.

In this perimeter and area of rectangles practice worksheet, students use their problem solving skills to calculate the perimeter and area of 4 rectangles.

For this perimeter and area of rectangles worksheet, students use their problem solving skills to calculate the perimeter and area of 4 rectangles.

Presenting perfect practice for finding perimeter and area of a rectangle. Three rectangles are depicted, three sets of sides are listed, and one real-life application described for which youngsters compute both values. The...

Upper graders identify the surface area and attributes of figures that are measurable. They estimate, measure, and record perimeter, area, temperature change, and elapsed time, using a variety of strategies. They also determine the...

What is the area? Because there is only one problem here with a detailed explanation below, consider projecting this as an all-class warm up. Learners examine a rectangle split into 12 squares. They know that each unit is three...

Remodeling projects require more than just a good design — they involve complex fractions, too. To determine whether a tiling project will fit within a given budget pupils calculate the square footage to determine the number of...

Surface area or volume? Pupils first review the difference between surface area and volume. They then use a two-dimensional net that helps them develop formulas for the surface area and volume of cylinders.

Discuss different techniques for finding the area of a geometric shape, with a great visual guide. Using a real life example, learners calculate the area of a rectangle and a square. 

For this rectangle worksheet, students find the areas of rectangles and draw squares to a given size, Examples and explanations are provided prior to the exercises. There are eight problems provided on this two-page worksheet.

Seventh graders review the concept of finding the areas of a rectangle. This lesson uses the classroom as a real life application for the formula of area. They measure classroom in order to compute the area.

An excellent activity that effectively pulls together the concepts of area, fractions, and equivalent fractions! Using 3x2 rectangular arrays, 3rd graders are introduced to the concept of area in terms of square units. Building on this...

Students calculate area, perimeter and length of rectangles. In this geometry lesson, students create different formulas for the problem they are being asked to solve. They use the navigator to move the shape around and make observations.

Finding the perimeter of a rectangle is easy, and this presentation gives the formula that makes it so. In this short PowerPoint, learners find the perimeter of a given rectangle, after being coached on how to calculate the measurement....

In this middle school geometry worksheet, students determine the area of a rectangle.  The worksheet provides an explanations and example.  The one page worksheet contains three problems.  Solutions are provided. 

By splitting a rectangle into equal parts, scholars can see area as well as calculate it. First, they determine the area of a rectangle given its side lengths. Then, they use the space provided to segment it into four equal parts,...

Another good presentation by Christine Berg is here for you. In it, learners are coached on definitions of area and perimeter and are shown how to perform calculations for both. They also see how to calculate the area of a triangle by...

Wow, that's a big pencil box! Scholars measure the area of a 15-foot pencil box among other measurement word problems. For each, they evaluate the information given to figure the area, which is sometimes not the end-all answer they are...

Dawn, a fictitious student, drew a long rectangle shape in her math journal, and now your class will explore it! They find the measurements of each side, total the perimeter, and find the area. Consider using this as inspiration: have...

Teach the connection between area models and the distributive property through problem-solving. The 22nd activity in a series of 29 explains the distributive property graphically. Learners build area models from word problems and convert...

The 21st segment in a 28-part series provides learners with area problems involving composite figures. To find the solution, pupils must decide whether to add or subtract areas. The composite figures are composed of quadrilaterals,...

A deceptively simple question setup leads to a number of attack methods and a surprisingly sophisticated solution set in this open-ended problem. Young geometers of different strengths can go about defining the solutions graphically,...

Does it? Kids find the perimeter and area of different shapes to assess whether their rectangle has guts. In addition to finding the area of a rectangle, learners work to find the area of a trapezoid. All worksheets are included. 

In this area activity, students find the area of rectangles, triangles and circles. This eight-page activity contains approximately 36 problems. Examples and explanations are provided. Answers are included at the end of the activity.
