Maths - Measurement

Can find perimeters, areas and volumes of simple shapes. This is my learning goal because it is in my to be achieved box of my AsTTle learning pathway or it is a goal from the Year 6 (5,7 ) standard.

I learnt about perimeter and area.

Perimeter is the distance AROUND the shape. To find the perimeter of a shape you add together all of the sides.

Area is the units INSIDE the shape. To find the area you need to multiply length x height.

Examples:

The rectangle is 6cm by 4cm.

Perimeter = 6+6=12 and 4+4=8 so 12+8=20cm

Area = 6x4=24cm squared

I can hear the tide coming in and out. When I look at the rock again, I can hear the rock cracking slowly. I can hear the strong wind blowing the sand.
I can smell the stinky slime coming from the rock. I can smell the salty sea air. I can smell lots of fish and wavy seaweed.
