In this area learning exercise, learners read and problem solve the area of 8 triangles. Students show their work on each problem on the learning exercise.

Third graders are challenged to draw their own rectangles given a specific area or perimeter. There are no examples of how each rectangle should look, so it is important for learners to persevere in finding a solution. There is more...

Fourth graders use triangle paper to design patterns using geometric figures and find the areas of those figures by counting units. Students are assessed by determining which figure has the greatest area and explaining their reasoning.

Sixth graders estimate surface area of a pond using a random number table.

Fifth graders apply the symmetry and angle properties of polygons and use fractions to express the relationships between the areas of rectangles, squares, and triangles. They analyze various country flags and develop mathematical...

In this area worksheet, learners find the area of rectangles that are represented by square units. Students complete 6 problems on 10 pages.

In this online math worksheet, students find the area and perimeter of rectangles. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into difficulties. A terrific teaching tool!

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

By splitting rectangles into four equal parts, scholars practice calculating area and determining side length. They begin by determining the area of each rectangle before segmenting it. Then, they use the space provided to split it into...

In this basic shapes worksheet, students use formulas to determine the area of given figures. They compute the area of composite figures and subtract the area of shaded areas. This one-page worksheet contains 12 problems.

These rectangles have everything scholars need to find the area, but none of them has units. Beginners to this skill multiply the length and width, all of which are whole numbers, to calculate and record the area for each. Consider...

Storm into a better understanding of geometry. Using a tornado as a backdrop, scholars practice their skills finding perimeters and areas of rectangles. Learners apply their knowledge of the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing sides of...

Expand area problems to incorporate prior knowledge. Pupils begin by reviewing the formulas for finding the area of parallelograms and triangles. The scholars apply previous learning of trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to...

In this geometry learning exercise, 4th graders identify how many square units is the area of each of the shaded shapes. Then they find the areas of the rectangles when the sides are given. Students also draw the figure described for each.

Discover the difference between area and perimeter. Learners are grouped in twos and threes and each group has one advanced/gifted learner to serve as the peer helper. They receive manipulatives to help them determine the area and...

Scholars use formulas for the area of a circle and the area of a rectangle to determine the number of pies a baker can make from a particular area of dough. They must also take into account rolling the remaining dough into a new sheet.

Develop a strategy for finding the area and perimeter of irregular figures. Building on an understanding of finding area and perimeter of rectangles and triangles, learners apply the same concepts to composite figures. After...
