In this project, you will make 2-dimensional templates, called nets, that fold up into 3-dimensional (3-D) shapes. By making shapes of different sizes, you will be able to see how 3-D shapes change with size. In your findings you will...

This interactive exercise focuses on volume equations, measurement, and problem solving skills to compare the volume of 3D figures constructed from similar amounts of construction materials.

Describing 3D shapes in Pre-K and Kindergarten is now an expectation as it is a key geometry standard. This resource contains 3D shapes activities and resources for practicing this standard. Included are chants, videos, games, poetry,...

Using an engaging approach, this lesson requires students to record the volume of cylinders as a function of the radius. Students will construct and measure the volume of several cylinders and then begin comparing these shapes.

Use this lesson plan to help students learn about cylinders. Students will be creating cylinders, and comparing them and their capacity. This engaging, hands-on lesson will hold student interest and be very beneficial to student learning.
