Last Wednesday's Maths
Last Wednesday’s Maths
WALT: Estimate, take actual measurements, work out perimeters and
areas of objects around the house.
If you wanted to measure the length of a pen what unit of measurement
would you use?
Mm, cm or m? Both cm and mm are acceptable but mm will be more accurate.
Estimate how long you think the pen would be
How long is it actually? I thought it was 10cm but it is 14.4cm or 144 mm
If you wanted to measure the height of a regular water bottle what unit of
measurement would you use?
You would use cm
Estimate the height of a water bottle
What is the actual height? I thought that my water bottle was 30 cm but
it was 22.7 cm
What unit of measurement would you use to measure the length of your bedroom?
You would use meters
Estimate the length of your bedroom I thought it was 5 meters
What is the actual length of your bedroom? It is 3.73 meters
Find the length of five objects in your house. Record what unit of measurement
and tool you are using to measure (e.g. a metre ruler or ruler, cm or mm)-Measuring tape
A door in your house- 1.95 meters
A window- 74 cm
Closet door- 1.99
Table- 1.98
Your bed-1.85 meters
Can you work out the area of the lid of your chromebook? (Imagine it was 2D).
What measurements will you need to take? Length 30cm x width 20cm= 600cm
squared
Can you find the perimeter of your chromebook? Length- 30cm+width-20cm=50x2=
100cm
Can you work out the area of your bedroom? Length 3.76 x width 2.99= 3x2=6
Find out what the dimensions should be for a regular basket ball court and a
regular football court.
Basketball court- 29m by 15m
Perimeter- 29m+15m=44m (44x2)=88m
Area-29m x 15m= 29x10=290 29x5=145 290+145=435meters squared
Football court
Perimeter-105m by 68m 105m + 68m=173m x 2=346m
Area-105m x 68m= 100x68=6800m squared 5x68=340m squared
6800m squared+340m squared=7140m squared
Find the perimeter of both these courts
Find the area of both these courts
Hint: Perimeter of a square = side x 4
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x length + 2 x width
Area of a square = side x side Area of a rectangle = length x width
