Curated OER
Light Beam
Students measure and convert between units. In this geometry lesson, students investigate through measurements of distances. They relate the properties of circle to solving problems with radius, diameter and area.
Curated OER
The Old Chicken Run Problem
Sixth graders apply problem solving strategies to work with a real life situation in which they need to determine the area. They determine the area of chicken runs that are rectangular in shape when give a partial perimeter.
Curated OER
Polygonal Strings
Sixth graders apply knowledge of how to calculate the area and perimeter of triangles. They determine why it is inappropriate to measure the area of land by its perimeter which is done in certain areas of New Guinea. They complete a...
