Perimeter Slide Show and Online Quiz for Kids

Perimeter is the distance around the outside of a plane figure.


To find the perimeter add the length of each side.

Perimeter = 10 cm + 7 cm + 4 cm + 7cm = 28 cm


The kids might like watching a Slide Show from Scholastic Study Jams on Perimeter. Then they can take a short online multiple choice quiz after viewing the slide show to check their understanding of perimeter.

Next they might enjoy measuring the perimeter of some plane figures. In tomorrow's post, I 'll mention the different materials (manipulatives) that I like to use. Here's a picture of one of my favorite "edible" manipulatives to use!

Thanks for stopping by!
