Unlike a volcano, the lesson won't blow up in your face. Young mathematicians use dried beans to discover the relationship between the volumes of cones and cylinders and to write a formula for the volume of a cone. They then research...

Similar shapes are all about the scale. Given seven problems, pupils use scale factors to determine measurements within similar shapes. While solving the problem, scholars also determine whether two figures are similar and use...

Learning about the mole using rice is pretty nice! Help your chemistry scholars visualize the concept of a mole of substance with an easy-to-perform lab. Partnered pupils find the mass of a single grain of rice and relate this...

Tall and skinny or short and stout, which glass hold the most liquid? Learners analyze dimensions of cylindrical glasses to determine the one holding the greatest amount of liquid. They brainstorm the relevant dimensions before making...

A video and popcorn, just like being at the movies! Given the dimensions of two different cylinders, scholars decide which will hold the most popcorn. They find out if their calculations are correct with the provided solution video.

How many calculations can you think of that include moles? Chances are, plenty! Show young chemists the uses of the multifaceted mole with thought-provoking puzzles. Individuals identify and associate the outcomes of molar quantities...

In this surface area worksheet, students determine the surface area of a rectangular box given the volume. They graph hyperbolas and calculate the dimensions of a cone. This two-page worksheet contains three problems.

Ninth graders investigate and make conjectures about volume. In this geometry lesson, 9th graders analyze data and predict the outcome. They calculate volume using different tiers.

In this geometry worksheet, students use a grid to draw 3 different rectangles that have an area of 20 square units and determine the perimeter of each rectangle. They draw and answer questions related to the relationships and uses of...

High schoolers identify rectangular volume calculations, and calculate using formula, concrete table, and calculator.

Explore the concept of volume of prisms using an applet to perform the calculations. The link to the interactive applet is embedded into the lesson plan as well as a link to associated data sheets. Get your math class to the computer lab...

Children use the length, width, and height of an object to calculate the volume of a rectangular prism. They observe how to multiply three numbers at a time, and define volume. Pupils observe as the teacher demonstrates how to determine...

You and your class will like this lesson on using visual models to relate the volume and surface area of solid shapes. Learners construct three-dimensional forms using nets. They calculate the surface area and volume for each and then...

Young scholars discuss strategies for estimating information about various shapes. Once they draw and label four shapes with perimeters of 30 units, they calculate the areas of the figures. To complete the lesson, students offer written...

In this density worksheet, students use a table showing the density of different substances to identify substances or calculate mass or volume.

We know solids have a density we can measure, but what about liquids? Lesson explores this concept and allows scholars to explore the relationship between volume and density. Graphing and analysis questions round out the activity. 

In this geometry and shapes worksheet, 5th graders practice calculating the shaded area of 2 objects. Students count the squares on 2 grids to find the volume of each object in cube units.

In this gas laws worksheet, students complete 17 word problems practicing using the gas laws to calculate volume, temperature, or pressure.

For this gas laws worksheet, students calculate volume, pressure, or mass for given gas reactions. Students calculate partial pressures for given gases. This worksheet has 17 problems to solve.

In this problem solving activity, students are given five problems including calculating volume given the dimensions of a pool, determining the number of subatomic particles in an atom, filling in a table with chemical names and formulas...
