Hallway Geometry with QR Codes

I saw some pins on Pinterest where teachers took tape and masked off tiled areas to measure (as well as figure the perimeters.)  Some used floor tiles, but I used the wall tiles, just seemed easier to count on the wall.  I taped off the  areas on our wall and added QR codes so the kids could check their answers with i-pads. They had to answer in their math spirals first.  (I like this site for QR code generation:  https://www.the-qrcode-generator.com/ and I use the Inigma app for the reader.  There are lots of others, but these two work great!)

Comparing Perimeters/Word Problems FREEBIES

Sometimes it's hard to find materials that extend the objectives for a certain skill "beyond the workbook" skills.  And if there is an extension type of problem, there's only one or two!  My kids need lots of practice thinking outside the box.  I created this freebie to help them go beyond just finding the perimeter of a shape.  Feel free to print it off and use it!
