When students see mathematics as an integrated field of study, they make connections, gain a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts, and see mathematics as a whole rather than disconnected, unrelated ideas. Measurement concepts are the perfect "seed to plant" to show how different mathematical strands integrate within other subject areas. The integrated activity shared here allowed middle school students to engage with measurement concepts and see the application of perimeter and area in a real-world scenario. Additionally, this activity allowed students to engage in spatial reasoning by measuring a physical space and rendering a scaled drawing to plan a school garden. Integrating these types of activities helps students relate physical spaces to mental models, thereby improving their spatial reasoning. The authors integrated the arts and cultivated conceptual understanding of measurement and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) subjects by asking the students to create a scale drawing or map of a garden.
