This math lesson teaches students how to calculate the area of a rhombus. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for standardized assessments. In this lesson, students will identify a rhombus and use one of two methods (the product of base and height or one-half the product of the diagonals) to calculate its area. In addition to the lesson, there are two pages of independent practice and three pages of periodic review with questions modeled after standardized assessments.
