In class today, we learned how to measure a parallelogram; well this is how you do it. There are two ways how to find area. One is to do height times base, or length times width. Another one is to find all of the full squares, and then find the halfs or other small pieces and add them up to make a couple more full squares. A parallelogram is a pretty easy shape to find the area, so lets get started. If you have graph paper, that will be easy because you can see the squares. But if you don't have graph paper, you'll have to use a ruler. That's all there is to it! Have fun trying it!

Hello Karissa.
I agree with you, Its not really that hard! You also said everything Mrs.Badger taught us in class! I think you did really well!

Hi Karissa,
You did great on telling us how to find the perimeter of a parallelogram. It was very easy. You did a awesome job!
Brenna
Karissa,
I think you did a great job on explaining how to do the math questions, and how to find the area of the figure. You explained it well, and did a really good job discribing how to do it, and what ways makes it easier to do it. Great job!

Hey! :)
Good job, but it was a little confusing!? Especially when you were explaining how to make full squares using small pieces from other squares. See U soon.
