Blog 10 Area and Perimeter City

This week, we discussed the ideas of area and perimeter, as well as the distinctions and relationships between the two concepts. This week, my kids were overjoyed to get started on their area and perimeter city assignments for my bulletin board, which they completed this week.

We began our lecture by reviewing the similarities and differences between area and perimeter. Because they are both quantitative shapes, they are very similar to one another. Models can be created to aid in issue solving and both are utilized on a regular basis. Although they are both related, area and perimeter are distinct in that area employs multiplication to discover the space within a shape, while perimeter uses addition to find the length around the shape. Following our conversation, we continued learning about area and perimeter as a group, utilizing live worksheets on the smartboard and graph paper to design our area and perimeter cities for the bulletin board, which was displayed outside of out classroom.
