The first day after a long Easter break is done, and I'm exhausted! Can we start counting down til summer holidays yet?
This week in math, my Grade 4 class will be attacking perimeter and area. As soon as I saw this idea on Pinterest, I knew I had to put it on my classroom door. Doesn't it catch your attention?
It's a little hard to see in the photo, but on the outside blue trim, I wrote "Perimeter is the distance around a 2D object". I think my students will benefit from this visual.
I'd love to hear about your favourite perimeter and area activities. Please share!
What a neat idea!!
ReplyDeleteIt has been quite a conversation piece. I set it up a few days before we actually started learning about perimeter and area. The kids kept asking me about it, but I kept telling them that they had to wait and see.
