Unit 10 Review: Surface Area and Volume
Marvel at the volume of knowledge one has gained on surface area and volume. Scholars first watch a video that reviews the surface area and volume of prisms, cylinders, cones, pyramids, and spheres. They then complete a worksheet of...
Lesson Planet: Curated OER
Surface Area and Volumes of Spheres
Round out the unit by investigating spheres. The fifth of six parts in the Geometry - Surface Area and Volume unit has pupils learn how to calculate both quantities for spheres. They watch as the narrator of an instructional video works...
Lesson Planet: Curated OER
Volume of Pyramids and Cones
Now it makes sense why pyramids and cones have one third the volume of prisms and cylinders. Pupils watch an educational video to learn about the formulas for the volume of pyramids and cones. They see several worked-out examples...
Lesson Planet: Curated OER
Volume of Prisms and Cylinders
Fill young minds with knowledge of volume. Pupils learn the formulas for finding the volume of prisms and cylinders by watching a video. They see several examples where the narrator calculates the volume of given solids.
