What is the difference between area and perimeter?
The perimeter of a shape represents the distance around it, the area of a shape is the surface or flat space that the shape covers (in 2D) while the volume of a shape is the space it occupies in real life (in 3D).
How do you introduce perimeter and area?
To find the perimeter, add together the lengths of the sides. Start at the top and work clockwise around the shape. Area of Polygon = (Area of A) + (Area of B)
