​LO: SWBAT solve problems related to perimeter and area of rectangles where dimensions are whole numbers DOL: SW solve problems related to perimeter and area of rectangles where dimensions are whole numbers correctly in 5 out of 6 problems.

To find the perimeter, add the length of ALL sides.

6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 24

The perimeter of this shape is 24.

24 what? 24 feet

Who cares?

If you were building a fence around the outside of your yard, you would need to know the Perimeter

Area

Area is the measure of the inside surface of a shape

To find the area of a rectangle, multiply the length by the width.

Find the Area

The Length (The bottom) is 8

The Width (The side) is 5

Area = Length x Width

8 x 5 = 40

40 what? 40 cm²

That little² means SQUARED
