Create your own shapes using colourful blocks exploring the relationship between area and perimeter.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Perimeter and area are basic concepts in geometry. Yet, to master them, students need plenty of practice. Our free online interactive area and perimeter game is perfect for helping your students master these concepts.

Using the interactive area and perimeter game is intuitive and easy. Click and drag the colored blocks onto the grid to create rectangles or irregular shapes. The tool will automatically show students the totals of the perimeter and area in the upper left hand corner of shapes of the same color. Perimeter sums also appear along the edge of the shape. You can toggle these features on and off using the "Hide Totals" and "Hide Perimeter" buttons in the top right hand corner. If you create several shapes, you can click on them to show the perimeter and area of each one. Clear the grid using the trash can button.

Offer students a given perimeter or area and see how many different ways they can achieve those totals with the blocks.

Visit classplayground.com for more resources and printables related to perimeter and area.

Let us hold each other in prayer as begin this journey together.

In November we remember...

This November we remember especially all those who have lost their lives during this pandemic all over the world.

We pray for the grieving families that they may be graced by God with the strength and courage to live with the loss of their loved ones.

May all who have died rest gently in the peace of God.

Why not try to lead a mindfulness meditation for a member of your family. Remember your space bubble, your breath is your anchor, finger breathing, petal breathing, a body scan- check in with every part of your body using your 'torch'. You can do mindfulness sitting or lying down. Use your senses. Reconnect with the earth beneath you. This is a beautiful way to re-energise and find the calmness within you.
Your breath is your anchor. "I know that I am breathing in and I know that I am breathing out."
