Perimeter and Area
My class was studying area and perimeter. The assignment was to create a map of your neighborhood. Include the blocks and parks in it. Create different problems using your map. i.e. Walk three blocks and turn right. Walk two blocks and turn right. Walk three blocks and turn right. Walk three blocks. What is my perimeter of what I just walk. For students extremely below they will be using a map given to them.
