Description
Here are 2 easy-to-use and fun games that help students practice calculating the area of a variety shapes and everyday objects.
Main Concepts Covered:
- 3.MD.C.6: Measure areas by counting unit squares (square cm, square m, square in, square ft, and improvised units).
- 3.MD.C.7: Relate area to the operations of multiplication and addition.
- 3.MD.C.7.A: Find the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths by tiling it, and show that the area is the same as would be found by multiplying the side lengths.
- 3.MD.C.7.B: Multiply side lengths to find areas of rectangles with whole-number side lengths in the context of solving real world and mathematical problems, and represent whole-number products as rectangular areas in mathematical reasoning.
- 3.MD.C.7.C: Use tiling to show in a concrete case that the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths a and b + c is the sum of a × b and a × c. Use area models to represent the distributive property in mathematical reasoning.
- 3.MD.C.7.D: Recognize area as additive. Find areas of rectilinear figures by decomposing them into non-overlapping rectangles and adding the areas of the non-overlapping parts.
Meets most 3rd grade curriculum expectations, however could also easily be used for revision or extension of area and perimeter concepts in other grades.
What’s Included:
- 2 Different Games
- 12 questions in each game. This is a great length to keep students engaged. Students solve the problems and then check their answer using the answer button.
- Optional recording sheets
These resources are easy to follow and fun! They could easily be used for:
- Whole class instruction or review
- Beat the Teacher type games
- Partner or group work
- Math Centers
- Independent test prep/revision
