Name:_______________________________ 6 th Grade Math- Unit 7 Measurement: Two-Dimensional This unit bundles student expectations that address length and area in order to investigate measurement relationships. Prior to this unit, in Grade 5 Unit 06, students connected the area model used to represent multiplication with the concept of area as a measure. During this unit, students explore measurement relationships within formulas for length, including perimeter, circumference, and area. In addition, students investigate pi to describe the relationships between the diameter, radius, and circumference of a circle. After this unit, in Grade 6 Unit 08, students will continue to explore measurement concepts to include standard measurement conversions, capacity, weight, time, temperature, and volume. In Grade 7 Unit 08, students will estimate measurements and solve application problems involving the length and area of polygons and other shapes as well as the volume of prisms and cylinders B: The student uses letters as variables in mathematical expressions to describe how one quantity changes when a related quantity changes. The student is expected to: Use tables of data to generate formulas representing relationships involving perimeter and area C: The student uses geometric vocabulary to describe angles, polygons, and circles. The student is expected to: Describe the relationship between radius, diameter, and circumference of a circle A: The student solves application problems involving estimation and measurement of length, and area. The student is expected to: Estimate measurements (including circumference) and evaluate reasonableness of results B: The student solves application problems involving estimation and measurement of length, and area. The student is expected to: Select and use appropriate units, tools, or formulas to measure and to solve problems involving length (including perimeter), and area.
Perimeter Definition for Perimeter: the distance around a two-dimensional shape. Memory Aid for Perimeter: Formulas for Perimeter: Square: P = 4sP Perimeter s side length Rectangle: P = 2 l + 2wP Perimeter l length w width *You can also find the perimeter by adding all of the side lengths together.*
