E.g. 1. Measure and record the perimeter of a given regular or irregular shape and explain the strategy used
E.g. 2. Construct shapes for a given perimeter (cm or m); Construct more than one shape for the same given perimeter to demonstrate that many shapes are possible for a given perimeter
E.g. 3. Estimate the perimeter of a given shape (cm, m) using personal reference points for length, then measure to assess the accuracy of the estimation
