Area & Perimeter: Design a School Carnival Project Based Learning

This project based learning resource is themed around students planning the design of an outdoor school carnival.

Scenario: The school principal is requesting that students use their knowledge of area and perimeter to plan the carnival. The principal provides guidelines (worksheets) listing the requirements for the games, entertainment and additional carnival areas. The main portion of the project requires them to use their knowledge of area and perimeter to make their carnival blueprints.

Differentiated Learning Options. (Two versions of area & perimeter calculation sheets)

• Basic Project: These pages have the length and width filled in on the charts. Students calculate area & perimeter. Best for beginning learners.

• Advanced Project: These pages do not have the length and width filled in on the charts. Students calculate length, width, area & perimeter. This is the more challenging version so it is most appropriate for learners with a solid grasp on basic spatial and measurement concepts in geometry.

Contents include examples, instructions for students, cover page, graph paper, worksheets for games, entertainment and other carnival areas, as well as worksheets for optional ELA extension activities. The extension worksheets included are for writing instructional directions, writing a persuasive school announcement and creating a tri-fold brochure.
