This math unit begins by introducing students to calculating the perimeter of trapezoids, setting a foundational understanding of simple geometric forms. As the unit progresses, it delves into more complex area calculations, starting with basic areas of trapezoids and right triangles, using both traditional and graphical methods on grids. Later, the focus shifts to calculating the area of triangles (right, acute, and obtuse) within other geometric shapes such as squares and rectangles. This involves working out areas from provided dimensions and the utilization of more advanced spatial reasoning. Throughout the unit, students are faced with increasingly complex scenarios that require them to apply their skills in different contexts, including determining areas using side lengths, dimensions, and perimeters provided in various configurations. This progression from simple perimeter problems to complex area calculations within embedded shapes helps solidify students' understanding of geometry, enhancing their ability to handle a range of geometric configurations.
