Maths Resource Description
The worksheet presents an exercise designed to help students calculate the perimeter of various shapes laid out on a centimetre square grid. The grid is provided as a visual aid, but it's important to note that it is not drawn to scale. Students are tasked with determining the perimeter of each numbered shape depicted on the grid. The shapes are likely to vary in complexity, from simple rectangles and squares to more irregular polygons.
For each of the six shapes, a blank space is provided where students are expected to write down their calculated perimeter in centimetres. The exercise is an effective way to reinforce the concept of perimeter as the total distance around the edge of a 2D shape. By engaging with this activity, students practice their measurement and addition skills, as they sum up the lengths of all sides of each shape to find the perimeters. This worksheet is a resource from an educational website that offers a variety of teaching materials.
