Greatest and Least Area - Enrichment 18.3
In this greatest and least area game worksheet, students cut out the cards, draw a card and record the measurement in the length or width column of a graph. When all columns have been filled, they calculate the areas to find the winner...
Inside Mathematics
Squares and Circles
It's all about lines when going around. Pupils graph the relationship between the length of a side of a square and its perimeter. Class members explain the origin in context of the side length and perimeter. They compare the graph to the...
