GeoGebra-based mathematics learning is an approach to teach mathematics that can support students to think mathematically. Learning using GeoGebra provides students with a new hands-on experience in learning mathematics as they can understand the mathematical concepts both from visualisation and representation. This study exploits the method by designing GeoGebra-based mathematics learning on the area and perimeter of rectangles. This study aims to provide a varied and exciting learning experience, support students in thinking mathematically and give a chance to students to solve mathematical problems correctly and fluently. The design of learning activities for the area and perimeter of rectangles with GeoGebra was tested with 4 elementary school students. The results indicate that students begin to understand the area and perimeter of a rectangle logically, although some are still doubts when answering the questions given.
