finds perimeter and area of the objects used in daily life using graph oaper
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Area? Perimeter? Are these often interchangeable concepts in your classroom? As teachers, we have had moments when students confuse these two. From a student’s perspective, it is easy to confuse these terms. We teach them at the same time, using the same shapes and we expect students to magically know and remember which is which. “Th eir diffi culties lie in the fact that children simply do not understand the mathematics well enough conceptually to make the connection with the problem-solving situation” (Moyer, 2001, p. 52). How are they supposed to understand the diff erence when most of the information we provide uses the same vocabulary? It is this problem that we wanted to eradicate by connecting these terms, area and perimeter, to real life curriculum.
