Lesson Plan Area Perimeter and Volume APP Objectives

Lesson Plan –Area, Perimeter and Volume APP Objectives and Habits of Mind • Level 4 / 5 Produced a scale drawing of a Rectangular Design flowerbed, calculated the perimeter and volume. • Level 6 c Produced a scale drawing of a Triangular Design flowerbed, calculated the perimeter and volume. • Level 6 b/6 Produced a scale drawing of a Kite or Parallelogram Design flowerbed, calculated the perimeter and volume. • Level 7 Produced a scale drawing of a Circular or Trapezium Design flowerbed, calculated the perimeter and volume. Keywords Cross Section, Dimension, Length, Width, Height, Prism Mental and Oral Starter Use mini white boards to ask pupils to calculate areas and dimensions of different shapes. Slides 6 – 9. Main Activity Explain to pupils that they work for a Landscape Gardening Company. Explain that their task is to come up with two designs for a raised flower bed which has an area of 24 cm 2. Refer to the starter activity as a reminder of how to do this. Give pupils the ‘Client’s Stipulations’ sheet with the additional information about the cost of the wall and the soil. Also provide the step by step instructions to break the task down for students. Students should produce two flower bed designs clearly showing all their working out. Plenary Ask pupils to complete the pink APP sheets.

Probing Questions Level 4 How do you go about finding the perimeter of a shape? Find areas by counting squares and How are the perimeter of a shape and the area part squares of shapes drawn on of a shape different? How do you remember squared paper. which is which? Level 5 Find any one of the area, width and length of a rectangle, given the other two. Find the area and perimeter of simple compound shapes made from rectangles. For a given area (e. g. 24 cm 2) find as many possible rectangles with whole number dimensions as you can? How did you do it? Always true, sometimes or never true? ‘If one rectangle has a larger perimeter than another one, then it will also have a larger area. ’ Level 6 The area of a triangle is 12 cm 2. What are the possible lengths of the base and height? Why do you have to multiply the base by the perpendicular height to find the area of a parallelogram? You can use a diagram to explain your answer. What other formulae for the area of 2 D shapes do you know? Is there a formula for the area of every 2 D shape? Calculate the area of triangle and parallelograms

Probing Questions Level 7 Talk me through the steps you took when finding the surface area of this right prism. The cross section of a skirting board is the shape of a rectangle, with a If you know the height and volume of a quadrant (quarter circle) on the top. right prism, what else do you know? What The skirting board is 1. 5 cm thick don’t you know? and 6. 5 cm high. Lengths totalling 120 m are ordered. What volume of How many different square-based right wood is contained in the order? prisms have a height of 10 cm and a volume of 160 cm 3? Why? What do you need to know to be able the find both the volume and surface area of a cylinder?

LO To design a feature flower bed and calculate the cost of the build Formula, volume, area, perimeter, prism RAG 30 -Oct-20 Learning Objectives : - • To produce a scale drawing • To calculate perimeter, area and volume. • To substitute values into a formula.

You will know that you have achieved this when. . . 1. You have produced a scale drawing of your flower bed 2. You have calculated the length of the wall 3. You have calculated the amount of soil needed to fill the flower bed 4. You have calculated the total cost. • Level 4 / 5 A Rectangular Design • Level 6 c A Triangular Design • Level 6 b/6 a A Kite or Parallelogram • Level 7 A Semi Circle or Trapezium

The Task You work as part of a landscape gardening company. A client has approached you to design and give a quote for a raised flower bed. They have a few stipulations which you need to follow. In your pairs you need to come up with two designs and give a quote for the cost of materials for each one.

The Client’s Stipulations • The flower bed must have an area of 24 m 2, but it can be any shape. • The raised bed needs to be surrounded by a brick wall. • It needs to have a depth of 50 cm (0. 5 m) and be filled with soil.

The Client’s Stipulations: • The flower bed must have an area of 24 m 2. • The raised bed needs to be surrounded by a brick wall. • It needs to have a depth of 50 cm (0. 5 m) and be filled with soil. It costs £ 20 per metre for a 50 cm high wall. Soil costs £ 40 per cubic metre. What You Need To Do: 1. Come up with two designs for the raised flower bed that are different shapes. Draw a scale diagram of each design with dimensions shown. 2. Calculate the length of wall that will be required to go around the garden. 3. Using the information on your information sheet calculate the cost of the wall. 4. Calculate the volume of your raised flower beds. 5. Give a quote for the cost of soil. 6. Present your two designs with final quotes for each design on a poster that could be presented to the client. They are picky customers and will want to see the calculations made.

Extension task. Use one of these flower bed designs 24 cm 2

Today’s Task Chose a shape for your flower bed which will have an area of 24 m 2 Draw a scale drawing of your flowerbed, showing all measurements. Calculate the length of the wall of your flowerbed by finding the perimeter. Work out the cost of your wall. Calculate the amount of soil needed by finding the volume of your flowerbed. Work out the cost of your soil. Work out the total cost for the wall and the soil. Do the same for a different shaped flowerbed. .

Your will assess each others work on: • The presentation of their ideas and designs. • The presentation of their calculations and results. • The accuracy of their calculations.

Our Rectangle Design Steps 1 & 2 – The design Area A = 3 x 8 = 24 m 2 Steps 3 & 4 - The Wall The perimeter of my design: P = 2 x 3 + 2 x 8 = 22 m Cost = 20 x 22 = £ 440 Steps 5 & 6 - The Soil The volume of our garden: V = area x depth = 24 x 0. 5 = 12 m 3 Cost = 12 x 40 = £ 480 Steps 7 - Total Cost Wall £ 440 Soil £ 480 TOTAL £ 920 Our first design is a rectangle shaped raised garden. The final cost will be £ 920.
