3. DEFINITION OF TERMS
PERIMETER
comes from the Greek words peri (which
means around) and meter (which means
measure).
is a length, which is one-dimensional and
measured in units of length such as meters,
centimeters or inches.
4. DEFINITION OF TERMS
AREA
the amount of space inside the boundary of a
flat (2-dimensional) object.
https://www.mathsisfun.com/definitions/area.html
is the number of unit squares equal in measure
to the surface.
is measured in squares with bases of a certain
length and hence is expressed in two-dimensional
units such as m² (meters squared or square
meters).
5. ISSUES WITH LEARNING ABOUT AREA
AND PERIMETER
1. They may see area, and also sometimes
perimeter, as purely an application of
formulae without understanding what
area and perimeter actually are.
2. They sometimes mix up the concepts of
area and perimeter.
6. ISSUES WITH LEARNING ABOUT AREA
AND PERIMETER
3. They might not have the experience of
measuring with unconventional/non-
standard units of measurement such as
hands, twigs, etc. and therefore do not
know why it is better to use standard
units of measurement – for example
using meters instead of hand-spans,
which vary between individuals.
7. ISSUES WITH LEARNING ABOUT AREA
AND PERIMETER
4. They have difficulty developing an
understanding of dimension. Often,
they do not understand that perimeter
is a length, which is one-dimensional
and measured in units of length while
area is measured in square units and is
expressed in two-dimensional units such
as m².
8. ISSUES WITH LEARNING ABOUT AREA
AND PERIMETER
5. They may not link their everyday
experiences and intuitive understanding
of area and perimeter to what they
learn in the mathematics classroom.

10. Activity 1: Finding the perimeters of objects
that surround us.
Procedures:
1. Find the perimeter (measure the length and
width) of at least 3 objects around the classroom
using non-standards and standard units (e.g.
paper clips, pencils, tape measure or ruler cm.)
2. Write the perimeter on the activity sheet
provided.
11.
12. Activity 2: Finding the perimeters of
different polygons
Materials: Grid paper, cut outs of different polygons
Procedures:
1. Place 1 cut out of a polygon on a grid paper. Count
the number of units on each side.
2. Calculate the perimeter of each polygon. Write the
perimeter on the respective polygons.
3. Derive the formula of the perimeter of each polygon.
13.
14. Activity 3: Working out the area of shapes using the
counting of squares method.
Materials: Cut outs of rectangles with different sizes, grid paper
Procedures:
1. Compare and manipulate the different cut outs of rectangle.
Arrange the rectangles according to their area (least to greatest).
2. Next, find the area of the rectangles using the grid paper. Trace
the rectangles on the grid paper and shade the squares covered by
the rectangles . Get the area of each rectangle by counting the
number of squares shaded then write the area on the rectangles.
3. Compare the areas of various rectangles, e.g. A1 < A2.
4. Using the length and width, derive the formula for the area of
rectangle.
