This document provides a lesson plan template for teaching students about the area of a parallelogram. It includes sections for the student teacher's information, curriculum statement, content analysis, classroom interaction procedure, and a follow up activity. The key points are that the area of a parallelogram is calculated as base x height, where the base is one side and the height is the distance between that side and its parallel side. The lesson involves demonstrating this concept through examples and activities with students before having them practice calculating parallelogram areas using the given formula.
