This Week In Math

Good morning!  

This week in Math we learned how to find the area of a parallelogram (A=b x h) and worked on finding the area of triangles (A= base times height then divided by 2).  Some students are still struggling with how to find the area of triangles so I am including a good resource for the students that will explain how we come about finding the area of triangles.  They can then practice by working the problems provided.  They will get immediate feedback for their answers. 

If your student is needing/wanting more practice please let me know as we will be moving on to finding the area of irregular shapes on Monday.  Have a great weekend!
