In this lesson, students apply concepts of area and perimeter to solve multi-step problems involving real-world examples. This lesson will take 2-3 days.
This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will design a …
This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will design a play area by dividing it into four sections. Students will decompose the total play area into parts by decomposing the length and width measures. Students will connect their drawing to the partial products strategy and area model for multiplication. This is remixable.

Students apply their knowledge of scale and geometry to design wearables that would help people in their daily lives, perhaps for medical reasons or convenience. Like engineers, student teams follow the steps of the design process, to research the wearable technology field (watching online videos and conducting online research), brainstorm a need that supports some aspect of human life, imagine their own unique designs, and then sketch prototypes (using Paint®). They compare the drawn prototype size to its intended real-life, manufactured size, determining estimated length and width dimensions, determining the scale factor, and the resulting difference in areas. After considering real-world safety concerns relevant to wearables (news article) and getting preliminary user feedback (peer critique), they adjust their drawn designs for improvement. To conclude, they recap their work in short class presentations.
