Curated OER
Perimeter, Area and Volume
Students compute area. In this perimeter, area and volume lesson, students examine given objects and determine the perimeter, area, and volume of each.
Curated OER
Perimeter, Area, Volume and Surface Area
In this perimeter of shapes worksheet, 10th graders find the perimeter of the shapes illustrated. Then, they find the volume of each shape shown. Students also match the shape with its correct name on the left and find the surface area...
Curated OER
Length and Area
Fourth graders measure one centimeter cubed blocks to determine their size. They measure lines using a worksheet that is not included in the activity. Next, they measure the area of figures on the sheet using the cubes in place of a ruler.
