practice. Lesson two was based on interaction. Students learned by watching and interacting with manipulatives that a parallelogram formed from pieces of a circle has the area calculated by Pi*r*r which is Pi*r^2. Lesson three focused on the guess and check attempt. Students were asked to find their own ways to approximate the area of a given circle without using the formula. Finally lesson four was investigative‚ students were given radius squares and asked to discover the area of a circle using fractions
