I learned that the distance around the outside of a rectangle stays the same but the inside doesn't stay the same. The distance around the outside is called a perimeter. The inside is called area. The perimeter was 26 of a rectangle that had an area of 36. It had 4 pieces on 2 sides, 9 pieces on 2 sides. Another shape was 26 around, but 1 piece on 2 sides and 12 pieces on 2 sides. It only had an area of 12!
