Tiny House|Perimeter & Area

For the last few weeks, we have been working on constructing a tiny house, in groups or partners. For the tiny house activity I was working with Haylee and Chavda. For this activity we used our knowledge on the perimeter, area and geometry. We created a plan to write down the measurements of the base, the roof and the furniture we needed. Then we started creating our tiny house. This activity was difficult, because of all the maths working out and the measurements we did.

Area & Perimeter

LI: To use a formula to calculate the area of rectangles and squares./LI: To investigate the relationship between the perimeter and area of rectangles. This week for maths we had to finish off three maths activities. First we got into partners. My partner was Sulia. We had to watch two videos about the area and the perimeter. After we did that we did the maths activities. The first maths activity that we did was the glossary where we had to write down the definition of maths words. The second maths activity we had to do was the area and perimeter where we had to find out the perimeter and the area. The last maths activity we had to do was to measure shapes and find out the area and the perimeter. These maths activities were hard and also fun.
