Area and volume for 5th Grade Math
Students measure and compute perimeter and area of rectangles and compound figures, then build volume from unit cubes to formulas and additive volume in composite prisms. They connect formulas to unit structure and explain what the units mean.
Skills and lessons
Find perimeter and area
Find perimeter and area of rectangles and compound figures, including figures with fractional or decimal side lengths.
Build and compute volume
