Unfortunately for young mathematicians, the world isn't made entirely of parallelograms, triangles, and trapezoids. After first learning the area formulas for these common shapes, students apply this new knowledge to...

What if I can no longer justify area by counting squares? Lead a class discussion to find the area of a rectangular region with irrational side lengths. The class continues on with the idea of lower approximations and...

Break out those math manipulatives, it's time to teach about area! Capturing the engagement of young mathematicians, this three-lesson series supports children with learning how to measure the area of squares, rectangles, and other...

Geometry novices will enjoy this approach to finding area, as they aren't required to include units or a formula. The main objective here is to segment a rectangle into columns and rows to create squares, which then are used to find the...

Intended for beginners to geometry, an area of a rectangle problem has scholars draw out the units within the shape. They segment it into four rows and six columns to determine how many squares the rectangle is made of and, eventually,...

In this area and perimeter of rectangles and squares worksheet, learners solve 6 graphing and short answer problems. Students plot four coordinates of a rectangle or square on the coordinate plane. Learners find the area or perimeter of...

Pupils figure out how to be resourceful when tasked with finding the area of a triangle knowing nothing but its endpoints. Beginning by exploring and decomposing a triangle, learners find the perimeter and area of a triangle. They...

For this areas of triangles instructional activity, students observe given polygons. They determine the area of triangles, rectangles and compound figures. This one-page instructional activity contains 5 multi-step problems. This...

Engage young mathematicians in applying their knowledge of area and perimeter with a fun geometry lesson. Through a series of problem solving exercises, children use their math knowledge to design different-sized garden...

In this geometry worksheet, 6th graders find the area of four squares with given measurements. Students use metric units to calculate the area of each given square.

Cover some serious area in your geometry curriculum with this collection of worksheets. After first introducing the concept of area using the tiling method, this resource continues on to teach learners how to use...

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...

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.

Develop young mathematicians' knowledge of two- and three-dimensional shapes with this geometry workbook. From learning about the classifications of different shapes and figures to calculating their area, perimeter, and volume, this...

What properties does area possess? Solidify the area properties that pupils learned in previous years. Groups investigate the five properties using four problems, which then provide the basis for a class discussion.

In this geometry worksheet, 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.

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...

In this are of right triangles learning exercise, students read graphs and explore congruent triangles.  They find the area of rectangles and of right triangles.  This one-page learning exercise contains explanations,...

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