Perimeter and Area Dogs


Since I have a Dog-Themed Classroom, I had the students review their knowledge of perimeter and area by creating dogs on graph paper. They could also choose to do other themes and we had a creative assortment of robots, clowns, fashionable girls, and one plumber with a plunger!

Students wrote the perimeter and area of each individual shape they drew as they went along. A few had time to also work on the perimeter and area of the entire drawing!

What's your classroom theme? You could make this a project for your class, too. Children can be so creative when given a chance!
