Students will learn the different formulas needed in finding the area and perimeter of various shapes. First students will start with learning the way to solve to find area, (The number of square units (units2) it takes to cover the surface of a figure, and learn to ALWAYS label units2). Students will also learn the Area (A) of a rectangle is found by using the formula: A = length(width) A = lw. Several problems will be given to ensure student understanding. Next, students will learn the formula needed to find the perimeter. Students will learn the perimeter of a shape is the measurement around the outside of the shape. Perimeter (P) of a rectangle is found by solving the following formula: P = 2l + 2w. Perimeter (P) of a square is found by doing four (4) times side ( s): P = 4s. One example that will be given: P = 4s P = 4(32) P = 128 units. Several practice problems will be included in this lesson, along with word problems students will solve to determine the difference when solving for area and perimeter.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to find the area in both rectangles and square.
Students will be able to find the perimeter in various shapes.
Other Details
Supply List
Students will need paper and pencil available during class to solve problems.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Teacher expertise and credentials
For the past decade, I am proud to have worked as a New Jersey public school teacher. I am not only able to observe the academic growth of students but also assist them in becoming problem solvers, independent thinkers, and goal setters. I feel confident that I will be able to transfer these acquired skills to the students of Outschool. Through hard work and dedication, accomplishments are attainable, and I look forward to sharing that mindset with all students. I obtained my Master of Education from Centenary University. I am well versed in both the Common Core and New Jersey Student Learning Standards. I have taught all subject areas in both fourth and fifth grades, and currently teach second grade.
