Measure the Room
In this lesson, students will be measuring the dimensions of the classroom, then calculating its perimeter, area, volume and (optional) surface area. Then they will participate in a design challenge to design their ideal classroom.
Students will work in pairs, using their choice from a variety of measuring tools, to measure the walls of the room. They will confirm the accuracy of their measurement before proceeding with their calculations.
They will use a room design website to input their measurement data and complete the design challenge.
It is anticipated that this lesson will take approximately three class periods.
