Geometry has too many words: Area with unit quares

Folks, I have a confession.

I don't really need to practice area using unit squares.

And I'm totally solid on what a unit square is: A square made up of one unit, like this:

Yep, that's a unit square.

 So why, you ask, is this my final topic? Because I totally love to play with finding the area of a shape using unit squares. It's like a super easy, super-fun puzzle.

And we've earned a little fun, don't you think? 

Sure we have.

 So let's go!

(Do you really need to ask where?)

I love you, Khan Academy!

I'm going to do all three sets, just because I can:
  • Find area by counting unit squares
  • Find area with partial unit squares
  • Create rectangles with a given area

Here's hoping I get 100%!

BAM!


DOUBLE BAM!

TRIPLE WHAMMY!

Thank you for indulging me.

That was nice.

And . . . thank you for joining me for Miss B's Math Trip!
