Once the word and the definition are complete, they will draw an example of the word. 5)    Explain that the foldable is available for their use should they need it in the next activity.	10 minutes
Scavenger hunt to find perimeter and area while working in a group	Learners engage in a hands on activity that requires collaboration and teamwork.	Learners will go out and find objects that have a particular perimeter or area based off the given information. They will work together to find as many objects while working together.		1)    Explain the rules of the activity. 2)    Learners will disperse into teams based on their seating to go out into the school and find objects that fit the length using the given answers. 3)    They will be given a handout that allows room to show work and with given answers.

Learners will need to work together to think of objects that work to fit the answers on the handout.	20 minutes
Group feedback and sharing	Hear learners voice and have them share their gains.	Learners will voice their experiences about the activity and share their findings.		1)    As learners return back to the meeting room they will grab refreshments before sharing their findings.	5 minutes
