This math chapter workbook on "Area and Perimeter" begins by explaining the definitions of area and perimeter, emphasizing that area refers to the amount of space inside a two-dimensional shape. Kids will be reminded that the perimeter is the total distance around the boundary of a shape.

One problem might present a rectangular garden with sides measuring 5 meters and 3 meters, asking students to calculate the perimeter by adding all the side lengths (5 + 3 + 5 + 3 = 16 meters) and the area by multiplying the length by the width (5 x 3 = 15 square meters). Another problem could involve a series of grid-based shapes, where students must count the square units to determine the area. Solving these kinds of problems can help students practice their multiplication and addition skills and develop a better understanding of how area and perimeter relate to everyday objects.
