00:05 | Whoa ! In this video , we are going to | |
00:09 | learn about area . It's gonna be fun . But | |
00:15 | first we want to hear from you . Six year | |
00:17 | old Hannah from Maryland said my favorite video is on | |
00:21 | place values . We are so glad you enjoyed it | |
00:24 | . Please , values are awesome . We also heard | |
00:29 | from mrs Yablonski second grade class in Pittsburgh who watched | |
00:33 | our sentence fragments video and said we loved the video | |
00:37 | , especially Mr Whiskers . It was funny and we | |
00:40 | also learned something too . That's great . We love | |
00:44 | to hear that . We love hearing from all of | |
00:49 | you . Be sure and watch this video to the | |
00:51 | end to learn how you two could be featured on | |
00:54 | one of our videos . Well , as we mentioned | |
00:59 | earlier in this video , we are going to learn | |
01:02 | about area . Yeah . Area is something we can | |
01:08 | discover about shapes . The area of a shape refers | |
01:12 | to how much space is inside of it . Area | |
01:18 | is very different from perimeter . If you'll remember perimeter | |
01:21 | is the space around a shape ? Area Is the | |
01:25 | space inside of a shape ? All right . So | |
01:31 | area is the space inside of a shape ? And | |
01:35 | parameter is the space around a shape . So they're | |
01:39 | very different , aren't they ? And this video is | |
01:41 | all about area . We're going to learn how to | |
01:44 | find the space inside of a shape . This should | |
01:51 | be fun . Let's play a game called . What's | |
01:53 | the area we want to find the area of this | |
01:57 | shape . What kind of shape is this ? Yeah | |
02:00 | , a square . Remember the area of the shape | |
02:04 | ? Is the space inside of the shape ? We | |
02:07 | are going to measure the area of the shape using | |
02:11 | square units . So the area of the shape is | |
02:17 | how much space is inside of it . So how | |
02:21 | many square units are inside of this square ? Do | |
02:26 | you know If you don't just count them up ? | |
02:29 | Yeah . four . There are four square units in | |
02:34 | this square . Four square units is the area of | |
02:38 | this square ? Okay , that was cool . Right | |
02:43 | , let's try figuring out the area of this rectangle | |
02:47 | . Just like last time we're going to measure the | |
02:50 | area of this rectangle using square units . Remember the | |
02:55 | area of a shape ? Is the space inside of | |
02:58 | the shape ? So how many square units are in | |
03:02 | this rectangle ? Do you know ? Yeah , there | |
03:10 | are five square units in this rectangle grey job . | |
03:14 | That's the area of this rectangle . Five square units | |
03:19 | . It awesome . Now we are going to look | |
03:24 | at an irregular shape . What is the area of | |
03:29 | this shape ? Just like we did with the others | |
03:32 | , were going to measure the area of this shape | |
03:35 | using square units . How many square units are inside | |
03:39 | of this shape ? Feel free to pause this video | |
03:42 | to give yourself time to count them . Yeah . | |
03:52 | Were you able to count all of them ? How | |
03:54 | many square units are in this shape ? What is | |
03:58 | the area of this shape ? Yeah , 12 square | |
04:04 | units . Great job there are 12 square units in | |
04:08 | this irregular shape so far . Finding the area has | |
04:15 | been very easy because we've shown you the inside of | |
04:18 | the shape . So all you have to do is | |
04:20 | count how many units are inside . But what if | |
04:24 | you can't see the units inside the shape ? What | |
04:27 | if there are just numbers that you know and you | |
04:30 | have to come up with the area ? Another way | |
04:36 | here is the fun part to find the area of | |
04:39 | a shape . You have to use multiplication . Yeah | |
04:42 | , multiplication . So how do you find the area | |
04:49 | of a square or a rectangle ? Using multiplication . | |
04:53 | All you have to do is multiply the length times | |
04:57 | the width to get the area here , we'll show | |
05:00 | you , Let's say we want to find the area | |
05:05 | of this rectangle . It is six ft long and | |
05:09 | one ft wide . Remember to find the area of | |
05:13 | a square or a rectangle . All we have to | |
05:16 | do is multiply the length times the width , the | |
05:20 | length times the width is the area . It's just | |
05:24 | simple multiplication . So we would write six times one | |
05:29 | . Six times one will give us the area of | |
05:32 | this rectangle . Mm . What is six times 1 | |
05:38 | , do you know ? Yeah , six times one | |
05:41 | is six . Whenever you multiply a number times one | |
05:46 | it stays the same . So our answer is six | |
05:50 | ft square . That little to next two ft means | |
05:55 | squared . It tells us that the rectangle has six | |
05:59 | square feet of space . Inside The area is six | |
06:04 | ft square . Why don't we try another one ? | |
06:10 | Let's say we want to find the area of this | |
06:14 | square . It is three cm long on each side | |
06:18 | . Remember to find the area of a square or | |
06:22 | a rectangle . All we have to do is multiply | |
06:25 | the length times the width for a square , the | |
06:28 | length and the width are the same size , aren't | |
06:32 | they ? Well , the length times the width is | |
06:35 | the area . So we just have to multiply . | |
06:38 | We would write three times 33 times three will give | |
06:44 | us the area of this square . What is three | |
06:51 | times 3 , do you know ? Hmm . Yeah | |
06:56 | , three times three is nine . The area of | |
06:59 | this square is nine centimeters squared . That little to | |
07:03 | next two centimeters means squared . It tells us that | |
07:07 | the square has nine square centimeters of space inside . | |
07:15 | That was so cool . What about this rectangle ? | |
07:18 | What is the area of this rectangle ? As you | |
07:21 | can see it is four m long and two m | |
07:26 | wide . Remember to find the area of a square | |
07:29 | or a rectangle . All we have to do is | |
07:32 | multiply the length times the width , the length times | |
07:36 | the width is the area . It's just simple multiplication | |
07:40 | . So we would write four times to four times | |
07:44 | two will give us the area of this rectangle . | |
07:49 | What is four times 2 , do you know ? | |
07:54 | Mhm . Yeah , four times two is eight . | |
07:57 | So the area of this rectangle is eight m squared | |
08:02 | . That little to next two m means squared . | |
08:06 | It tells us that the rectangle has eight square meters | |
08:10 | of space inside As we are wrapping up . We | |
08:16 | want to share too quick tips about area as you | |
08:19 | saw from our examples . When you find the area | |
08:22 | of a shape , the answer is always squared . | |
08:26 | If we discovered the area of a shape was measured | |
08:28 | in feet and the answer was 50 . Our answer | |
08:32 | could be written 50 square feet or 50 ft squared | |
08:37 | . The answer is always squared because area tells us | |
08:41 | how much space is inside a shape , the little | |
08:45 | to means squared . The second thing we want to | |
08:50 | mention is that you have to use a different multiplication | |
08:54 | equation to find the area of circles and triangles . | |
08:58 | In this video , we just learned the basics of | |
09:01 | area and how to find the area of rectangles and | |
09:05 | squares . But this is just the beginning . In | |
09:08 | the start of an exciting math world , there is | |
09:11 | so much more about area to learn . Yeah wow | |
09:18 | . Okay so we need to fit a lot of | |
09:21 | boxes in this warehouse . Okay . But bob isn't | |
09:24 | sure how much space is in here . Okay . | |
09:27 | The warehouse is shaped like a rectangle so I can | |
09:32 | just multiply the length times the width and figure out | |
09:36 | how many square feet are in this warehouse area is | |
09:40 | so cool . How area is awesome , man ! | |
09:46 | Math is so great . Oh man , wow ! | |
09:51 | Hey , I I wonder what Mr whiskers is doing | |
09:54 | right now . So you made it to the end | |
10:01 | of the video . You are awesome . Remember the | |
