Lesson: Perimeters of Rectangles with the Same Area Mathematics • 3rd Grade

In this lesson, we will learn how to draw rectangles with the same area using unit squares, count to find their perimeter, and compare these perimeters.

recognize that rectangles can have the same area but different dimensions and perimeters,
compare the perimeters of rectangles with the same area but different dimensions,
explain the difference in perimeter between rectangles with the same area,
construct different rectangles with the same area.
