Creating a conceptual understanding of how to find the volume of rectangular prisms using fractional side lengths.

Modeling volume with centimeter cubes deepens understanding of the formula for finding volume.

Find the volume of rectangular prisms to solve word problems. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

This lesson will present how to apply the volume formulas of prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones, spheres, and hemispheres to find the volume of composite figures. It is 5 of 6 in the series titled "Volume of Composite Figures."

What is a prism? Find a good definition and several example images, as well as formulas for finding the volume and surface area of a prism given measurements of its base and height.

The purpose of this third task in a series of four is to find the height of water in a rectangular prism tank when the volume is known. All units are metric. Aligns with 6.G.A.2.

Practice finding the volume of rectangular prisms that have fractional side lengths. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Find volumes and surface areas of boxes, cylinders, and triangular prisms. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Find out how to find the volume of a prism, and follow up with some practice problems.

This task supports the standard 5.MD.5.b in that it asks students to use the volume formula and conceptual understanding to solve real-world problems.

In this lesson, young scholars will be required to generate a formula for volume of a rectangular prism. Students working in cooperative groups will use prior knowledge for finding area of a rectangle to determine the "amount of area in...

This calculator finds the volume, surface area, and height of a triangular prism. Surface area calculations include top, bottom, lateral sides, and total surface area. Height is calculated from a known volume or lateral surface.

In this activity, students learn to draw a three-dimensional figure using Isometric Dots in the Explorer Draw App on the calculator. They also find the area and volume of a rectangular prism. [Requires Adobe Reader.]

This exercise helps students understand how volume in figured, even when two or more parts of a prism are not overlapping. There is a teacher view, with a description of the activity and commentary, and a student view, with just the...

Use this calculator tool to find the volume in cubic units of a triangular prism.

Use these calculator tools to find the surface area, in your choice of units, of a sphere, cone, cube, cylinder, rectangular prism, capsule, ball cap, conical frustum, ellipsoid, or square pyramid. Includes a reference section listing...

Students find the volume and surface area of a rectangular box (e.g., a cereal box), and then figure out how to convert that box into a new, cubical box having the same volume as the original. As they construct the new, cube-shaped box...

In this exploration, students will apply their knowledge of finding volume and surface area of cylinders and rectangular prisms. Students will make recommendations to the local movie theater after determining which package is cost...

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart contains notes, information, and practice finding surface area and volume of cubes and prisms.

Students find the volume and surface area of a rectangular box (e.g., a cereal box), and then figure out how to convert that box into a new, cubical box having the same volume as the original. As they construct the new, cube-shaped box...

During this activity, middle schoolers will create nets for prisms. They will find the volume and surface area of the shapes. They will also use interactive activities to review three-dimensional shapes.This lesson plan was created as a...
