Collage of Perimeter and Area = MATH AND ART

In this ART Lesson Students were asked to make a collage of a football  field and display the measurements in perimeter and area

Materials:
9X12 white paper
black marker\
1 piece of green contruction 4X10
2 Pieces of brown construction paper 4X 3
glue /ruler

Students  are told the football field is divided into  12 lines  resembling 10 yards.They will have to measure
the greeen construction paper and divide  it by twelve even sections.
This will create 6 sections of ten yards ,with one section being the goal yard.
paste the green to your white paper vertically, after you have labeled the green field
Then cut out your goal post with the brown, Draw the goal post first then cut it out.

After every thing is glued, find the perimeter of the football field by adding all the 10 yard lines
perimeter = length + length+ width+ width.
Have students transfer the yardage into feet.

Then have the students find the area
area= length X width
 Transfer the  yardage in to feet
Here are some pictures of students works.
MAKE SURE ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE LABELED and  problems are written on paper

Glue and bend post vertical at the end of the football field  on the  paper as shown.
