Perimeter and Area

Today I learnt perimeter and area.

Perimeter is the distance around the shape. People mostly use perimeter when they’re building a fence.

Area. When you use area, you will be fill the inside of the area your in. For example, when you think of area, you think of surface. Like you need area to put tiles in you restroom.

Sometimes I find it difficult to work it out.  I'm still a bit unclear about perimeter and area but I’ll keep working on it.

Trenches




Yesterday, Camille and I made a trench with play dough. My class made trenches because we are studying World War 1. First my group and I had to plan how our trench would look like. When we started I thought it would be easy but it was hard because Camille and I had to make a few sandbags, one rat and also a gun. My favorite thing about this was about learning the facts about World War 1. The facts that I learnt were that WW1 first started in the year of 1914 and that it ended in 1918.
