How to Play1. Shuffle each deck. Place both

decks facedown.

2. Take turns turning over 1 card from each deck. Find the area (A) or the perimeter (P) of the polygon, as shown by the Area and Perimeter Card.

• If you draw a “Player’s Choice” card, you may choose to find either A or P.

• If you draw an “Opponent’s Choice” card, your opponent chooses whether you will find A or P.

3. Record the Polygon Card number, circle A or P, and write a number model to calculate the area or perimeter. The solution is your score for the round.

4. The player with the higher total score at the end of 8 rounds wins.
