UNIT OVERVIEW

Students review the concepts of area and perimeter as they investigate the relationships between perimeter, area, and side length in rectangular shapes. Students collect, graph, and analyze data using data tables and line graphs to design runways and helipads for the imaginary city of Antopolis. In the next unit, students use area models to multiply and analyze numbers.
