This planning resource for Year 7 is for the topic of Area and perimeter. Students should be familiar with the concept of area and how to find the area of a rectangle. They will extend this knowledge to find the formulas for the areas of other shapes, such as a parallelogram and triangles.
This planning resource for Year 6 is for the topic of Area and perimeter. Students refine their understanding of area and perimeter and establish the formula for the area of a rectangle and use it to solve practical problems.
This planning resource for Year 5 is for the topic of Area and perimeter. Students estimate and measure perimeter in metric units for length and area of quadrilaterals using grid squares and square centimetres. They solve practical problems involving the perimeter and area of regular and irregular shapes.
This planning resource for Year 8 is for the topic of Area and perimeter. Students build on their knowledge of the area and perimeter of rectangles, parallelograms and triangles to rhombi, kites and trapezia. They identify and use the formulae for these to solve problems.
This planning resource for Year 4 is for the topic of Area and perimeter. Students estimate and measure perimeter and area using informal and formal units.
Use this video to connect area and perimeter to real world applications to set the context for why we are learning about area and perimeter.
Students review and calculate perimeters and areas of rectangles.
This work sample demonstrates evidence of student learning in relation to aspects of the achievement standards for Year 6 Mathematics. The primary purpose for the work sample is to demonstrate the standard, so the focus is on what is evident in the sample not how it was created. The sample is an authentic representation ...
This sequence of five lessons teaches students about perimeter and area of shapes, as well as how to calculate them.
This planning resource for Year 8 is for the topic of Circles and cylinders. Students recall and revise circumference, radius and diameter from Year 7. They understand the relationships between these measures and can use relevant formulae to solve problems.
Use this diagnostic task to assess what students know about area and using the area formula.
Use this diagnostic task to assess if students use an array structure when working out how many tiles fit in a rectangle.
Use this diagnostic task to assess understanding of area and measuring the area of an irregular shape.
Use this diagnostic task to assess understanding of area and comparing the area of two shapes using a relevant approach.
Scientists involved in the Two Bays Project describe data collection methods for their 20-day expedition around Port Phillip and Western Port bays. Watch this clip to view the route mapped out by the scientists. Use Google Maps to recreate the route and calculate the total distance travelled.
This is a 16-page guide for teachers. It provides an introduction to the initial ideas of measurement, and introduces the measurement of length, area, volume and time.
This is a 15-page guide for teachers. In the module the formulas for finding the circumference and area of a circle are introduced. The history and significance of the number pi is also included in this module.
This teaching resource outlines an activity for students to explore the relationship between the area and perimeter of a shape, by using a series of cuts in a piece of paper to create a hole large enough to step through. The resource includes detailed instructions for creating the cuts in the paper, an explanation of how ...
Want to know the trick to making a really big fort? Using cushions to build a fort, explore the concept of finding the largest area for a fixed perimeter. Surprisingly, there is no direct relationship between the perimeter of a rectangle and its area.
How do we know what a house will look like before it is built? Discover how house plans work by looking at the design of a house that Hugo's family is going to build. See how a floor plan shows the room layout. See drawings of what the house will look like from different views.
