What educators are saying

This was a great way for students to practice circumference and area. I used it both as a Pi Day activity and with my 6th graders during our lessons on area and circumference.
It was fun using this on March 14. Easy to understand explanation of how to calculate the area of circle.

Description

Geometric Shapes: Measuring Circles • Circumferences Length & Calculating Area VETERAN Elementary Montessori-inspired Geometry help (5 printable pages + key)


Circles! How do we explore the special polygon known as a circle? This resource guides young geometrists to:

  • Review terminology of the special polygon known as a circle
  • Discover the history of circles and pi and where we see them today
  • Look more closely at the relationship--the ratio--of Circumference to Diameter
  • Learn how to measure the circumference of a circle using the formula: d • π = C
  • Calculate the area of a circle using the formula: π • r² = A
  • Practice multiplying Pi by both whole numbers and mixed numbers.

How do we explore the special polygon known as a circle? Look more closely at the relationship - or the ratio - of Circumference to Diameter. Learn how to measure the circumference of a circle using the formula: d • π = C (diameter x pi = Circumference).

Then calculate the area of a circle using the formula π • r² = A (pi x radius squared = Area). Enjoy Geometric Shapes: Measuring Circles • Circumferences Length & Calculating Area!

Dr. Maria Montessori believed the only way our world would find lasting peace was through educating our children. Much of her elementary curriculum was written by her during a period of internment in India during WWII. This time period helped solidify Dr. Montessori’s belief in Peace Education.

Resource Color Guide (just like the Montessori hierarchical colors):

ROOKIE Pages (Green) - Aimed toward early to mid level elementary students.

SEMiPRO Pages (Blue) - Aimed toward mid level elementary students.

VETERAN Pages (Red) - Aimed toward mid to late level elementary students.

But of course, you know the child best, so adjust accordingly.

In the words of Dr. Montessori, "Follow the Child!"

An angle is measured with reference to a circle with its center at the common endpoint of the rays, by considering the fraction of the circular arc between the points where the two rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns through 1/360 of a circle is called a “one-degree angle,” and can be used to measure angles.
Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and squares are rectangles, so all squares have four right angles.
Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties.
Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and use them to solve problems; give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and area of a circle.
