(ROCKWALL, TX – Nov. 16, 2015) Mrs. Straight’s 4th graders at Dobbs Elementary took analyzing area and perimeter to a new level on Friday.

As they worked in pairs to move about the hallways, they looked for ways to find the area and perimeter of multiple surfaces that they move about every single day. There was no surface left untouched as these inquiring minds analyzed what the area and perimeter was!
