Description
Area of quadrilaterals and triangles notes have never been more engaging!
Use this Area Doodle Math Wheel to introduce finding areas of different shapes – rectangles, squares, parallelograms, trapezoids, and triangles.
Or, use the wheel as a review/study guide after students have learned the concepts. Students can keep the organizer in their notebooks or binders as a resource/study tool. (If you need the shapes to use fractional sides, check out Area Math Wheel - Fractional Sides.)
What is a math doodle wheel? A math doodle wheel is a type of graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a resource/study tool.
- The wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep.
Area Math Wheel sections include:
1) Rectangles
2) Parallelograms
3) Trapezoids
4) Triangles
5) Squares
- Each section has a shape, with dimensions labeled
- Each section has a spot for students to fill in the formula
- There is space to show the calculations to find the area of each shape given
- On the sample, I wrote the formulas, in words, along the edges of the sections, so students can see/reference the words that the variables stand for
This resource includes:
1) THREE versions of the student wheel
- ‘Open’ for students to write notes (this version is most flexible, allowing you to phrase notes as you’d like or add additional notes)
- ‘Fill-in’ notes, to help student use of space
- Pre-filled notes for new students, absentees, or students who need this option; answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on this version
⭐️Each version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher key with completed notes and examples
3) Colored sample of wheel
4) PowerPoint file with two editable templates, so you can add text to make your own math wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use area resource:
1) Notes sections and examples
2) Guided or independent practice: there are 8 shapes, with dimensions, around the outside of the circle, for which students should find the area.
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern for fun, as well as the headings and doodle arrows.
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned versions:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, center activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide.

What teachers are saying about this resource:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“I loved having this as an easily accessible resource for my students to use when they learned all about the areas of different polygons. Plus, the way this was formatted was engaging to my students. Thanks for your hard work!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“Love how this covered the standard perfectly!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“This was a great resource for the area formulas that my students could refer back to when solving surface area and area of compound figures.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“I love this resource! This wheel is a great addition to the students' tool box of Math knowledge; Fits well into interactive notebooks; great reference to keep for next few years of Math!”
