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.

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.]

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...

Students will investigate the relationship between surface area and volume and their application to the inner workings of real life organisms.

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...

Find the volume of irregular 3D figures made up of unit cubes by dividing the figures into rectangular prisms and finding the volume of each part. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly,...
