It is not the measure of the boundary of a figure.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Recognize that it does not make sense to report an area with a linear unit, e.g., 8 feet cannot be an area. You need to measure area with some 2-dimensional unit, something that will cover space.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Understand the meaning of area units. For example, a square inch (in<sup>2<\/sup>), also called an inch squared, is the space covered by a square with sides of 1 inch.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Understand the meaning of area measurements. For example, to say that the area of a figure is 8 cm<sup>2<\/sup>, means that that figure covers the same amount of space as 8 squares with sides of 1 cm.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Common Core Math Standards <input type='hidden' bg_collapse_expand='69e99cb58a84e8062190619' value='69e99cb58a84e8062190619'><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-more-text-69e99cb58a84e8062190619' value=' '><input type='hidden' id='bg-show-less-text-69e99cb58a84e8062190619' value=' '><button id='bg-showmore-action-69e99cb58a84e8062190619' class='bg-showmore-plg-button bg-blue-button bg-arrow '   style=\" color:white;\"> <\/button><div id='bg-showmore-hidden-69e99cb58a84e8062190619' ><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecorestandards.org\/Math\/Content\/HSG\/MG\/A\/3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>CCSS.Math.Content.HSG.MG.A.3<\/strong><\/a><strong>.\u00a0<\/strong><em>Apply geometric methods to solve design problems.\u00a0<\/em><br><br>Textbook area problems often display figures with dimensions and ask students to compute the area.

In&nbsp;<strong>Episode 5<\/strong>, the students draw accurate representations of different area units\u2014square inches, square centimeters, and square feet\u2014using rulers.
