This 11-page work packet helps students practice finding the area, perimeter & circumference of rectangles, triangles, circles, and trapezoids.

Students design their own amusement park using area and perimeter of rectangles and triangles. Includes extensive instruction sheet, project guide for students, and extra writing activity if students finish early. Students make a poster to show park design, and can even use manipulatives to find the longest and cheapest roller coaster ride possible! Students also calculate tax and price, coming up with a total budget!

This is a common core aligned inquiry-based lesson plan that allows students to explore the ideas of scale factor and similar figures by designing their own dream house. The students will draw scale models of their designs, learn how to calculate scale factor and use cross-multiplication to determine if two shapes are similar. The lesson will most likely take two classes, depending on how much time you want to give students to get creative with their dream house floor plans. The zip file incl
