Students explore area and perimeter. In this math lesson plan, students differentiate between area and perimeter and compute the area and perimeter of an object.

Geometers explore mathematics by completing an object measurement worksheet. They utilize a variety of candy bars and rulers to conduct a measurement experiment in class. They complete worksheets as a group based on the measurement...

Students pace a Gunther Chain, a measurement used by foresters to determine distance and area. They discuss that pacing is individualized depending on age, gender, etc. They practice to find an average pace. Teams estimate, pace and...

Have your class practice measuring the perimeter of various objects using this resource. Fifth graders place various-sized polygons in order (from largest to smallest). They use non-standard measuring tools to estimate the distance...

Sixth graders explore the relationship between area and perimeter of rectangles. In this area and perimeter lesson, 6th graders measure and determine perimeter and area of various rectangles. Students create rectangles with given areas...

In this area and perimeter worksheet, students find the perimeter of 1 of a pair of rectangles with the same area. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Here is a real-life lesson plan! Learners must plan the dimensions of a rectangular fence to reign in a runaway dog. They survey what shape and size fence is needed and use formulas to find perimeter and area of the fence. They explore...
