To finish the lesson& we will summari7e. I will ask the students what perimeter is and I will ha#e them answer as a whole group. ctivit, nal,sis: )efore the lesson& I will ask the students if an% of them know how to find the perimeter of a figure or o$:ect. No technolog% will $e used for this so that I can get an understanding of the students; prior knowledge. After the lesson& I will gi#e the students two worksheets to complete. These worksheets will allow the students to practice the new concept& with super#ision and support if there are 6uestions.
