Thank you teaching_with_teal for sharing your students' Area Name Art with us. What a fun and engaging way to teach area of rectilinear figures! Here's how it works: • First students draw their names using block letters on grid paper. • Then, students separate their names into rectangles and number them. • Students write the formula to find the area of each rectangle and then solve. •They find the total area of each "rectilinear" figure (aka: the letters of their name) • Finally they calculate the total area of their name! #thirdgradeteacher #thirdgrademath #iteachthird
