Unit 8 is a very short unit focused on area and perimeter, so our unit test will be this Friday, April 26th. Please use the information below to review at home as well as this Jeopardy game. Additionally, student will review in class with their respective math teachers prior to the test.
As a reminder:
Unit 8 revolves around perimeter, area, and scale drawings. It begins with a review of perimeter and area concepts previously introduced in Everyday Mathematics, and extends knowledge by developing formulas as mathematical models for the area of rectangles, parallelograms, ad triangles. Unit 8 also explores applications of area with the help of scale drawings. Unit 8 has three main areas of focus:
- To review perimeter and area concepts,
- To develop formulas as mathematical models for the areas of rectangles, parallelograms, and triangles, and
- To explore applications of area with scale drawings.
