Design a Mini-Park (Area & Perimeter)

Today you become a park designer! A mini-park is a small piece of land split into zones — playground, garden, path, lawn. To plan one well, you need two skills you already know: perimeter (the distance around a shape) and area (the space inside it).

What this lesson teaches

1Calculate perimeter of a rectangle using P = 2 (L + W)
2Calculate area of a rectangle using A = L x W
3Apply area and perimeter to design a real mini-park layout
4Compare zones in a layout to choose the best fit for a budget
