Math:
This week in math, the students will continue learning about polygons, quadrilaterals and will explore perimeter as an attribute of plane figures and solve problems.  They will measure side lengths in whole number units to determine the perimeter of polygons. The students will determine the perimeter of regular polygons and rectangles when whole number measurements are missing. They will use all four operations to solve problems involving perimeter and missing measurements.

Example of solving perimeter problems with known measurements:
