Fifth Grade Math: Today we reviewed area homework, and in class students worked on area of nine rectangles where the perimeter remained the same (36 feet) but by the time the rectangle became a square the area increased from 17 square feet to 81 square feet. This should be helpful when students are designing a pen for Mr. Trottle's terriers with the 90 feet of fencing and the sides of the two buildings.
