Area & Perimeter:
Learning Targets:
4.MD.3 I can solve problems involving area and perimeter.
4.MD.3 I can solve problems involving area and perimeter.
- Find areas of rectilinear figures with known side lengths.
- I can solve problems involving a fixed area and varying perimeters, and a fixed perimeter and varying areas.
- I can apply the area and perimeter formulas for rectangles in real world and mathematical problems. For example, find the width of a rectangular room given the area of the flooring and the length, by viewing the area formula as a multiplication equation with an unknown factor (22 x n=484)
- array, area, length, width, square units, area model, perimeter, rectilinear figure,
- Formula for Area: length x width = area (in square units)
- Formula for Perimeter: 2 x (length x width) = area (in square units)
