How to help with this skill

Fifth graders strengthen work with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages and mathematical expressions.

  • Label length and width clearly.
  • Multiply length by width for a rectangle’s area.
  • Add all four sides, or calculate 2 × (length + width), for perimeter.

Try this: Trace the edge of a book for perimeter and cover its surface with squares for area.
