This Grade 3 mathematics worksheet builds perimeter skills through 11 items focused on rectangles, squares, and a flower pot shape. Students match perimeter values to shapes, fill in perimeter answers for figures measured in centimeters, meters, feet, and yards, and complete one multiple-choice question. The varied units and shape contexts reinforce that perimeter describes the total distance around a figure. Use this free printable worksheet for guided practice, independent work, homework, or a quick check of students’ ability to determine perimeter from labeled shapes. The fill-in-the-blank format requires students to produce the numerical answer rather than select it, while the matching item provides an additional way to connect shapes with their perimeter values. A complete answer key is included for efficient checking and feedback.

FAQs
What does this perimeter worksheet cover?
This Grade 3 worksheet practices finding the perimeter of rectangles, squares, and a flower pot shape. Its 11 items include one matching task, nine fill-in-the-blank perimeter calculations, and one multiple-choice question, with measurements presented in centimeters, meters, feet, and yards.
How can I use this worksheet to teach perimeter?
Begin by modeling how to add the side lengths around a labeled rectangle or square, then solve one example with the class while naming the measurement unit. Have students explain how they found each fill-in-the-blank answer before completing the matching item and the flower pot question independently.
What mistakes should I watch for when students complete this worksheet?
Check that students add the lengths around the entire shape rather than use only one side or multiply the dimensions as if finding area. Also watch for incorrect unit labels, confusion between the rectangle and square items, and mismatches between a shape and its perimeter value in the matching question.
How do I assign and grade this perimeter worksheet?
The worksheet is available as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz on Wayground, and it includes a complete answer key. You can grade printable submissions by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app.
How can I differentiate this perimeter worksheet for my students?
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing or choose a larger font size so the perimeter diagrams, labels, and fill-in-the-blank items are easier to read. You can also apply a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when those options better support access to the rectangle, square, and flower pot perimeter tasks.
