Math Notes from Today (possible homework...)

Today we discussed different types of questions within the concept of Area and Perimeter. Each of these types of questions target specific thought-processes:

Communication: Use a diagram to explain the difference between perimeter and area.

Thinking: How might you have identical perimeters, but different areas? Does this work in reverse?

Application: Design a fence that would enclose a backyard that is 64 sq m. If possible, use more than one polygon.

We spent 10 minutes per question, to gauge our own work-pace. The completion of each question is required for tomorrow's discussion on Success Criteria.
