Perimeter Perimeter!!

We are learning about perimeter in D1 and D2.  We learnt it is the OUTSIDE measurement of a shape.  We had great fun making squares outside on Friday and measuring the perimeter.  We were having fun and learning at the same time :)

We tried a 1m sided square.  We easily figured out the perimeter was 4 m.  We then tried a 3 m square.  It took up lots of space.  Simi and Oliver quickly figured out 3+3+3+3 = 12 so the perimeter must be 12m.  Great thinking!!
