First off, this worksheet is adorable! It has seven unit cube buildings drawn on it, complete with trees, paths, and fountains. Upper graders find the volume of each of seven buildings in cubic units. The drawings are attractive, and the...

Using numbers with varying units (money, length, volume, distance, weight), scholars put each set in order from least to greatest. There are five numbers in each set, and they are all whole numbers with units attached (numbers in each...

Enrich your study of living things with these cross-curricular math activities. Following along with the story Tillena Lou's Day in the Sun, learners will practice addition and subtraction, learn how to measure volume and length,...

In this finding and ordering volumes worksheet, students solve the volumes, use the information to put them in order from least volume to greatest volume, and answer word problems. Students solve 11 problems. 

Students examine volumes of solids of revolution. In this volumes of solids of revolution lesson plan, students use the limit of a Riemann sum to find the volumes of disks or cylinders and a sphere.

In this geometry activity, students, calculate the volume given the sides of the shapes. There are 6 questions dealing with volumes.

Students measure the perimeter and area of their polygons. In this geometry lesson plan, students calculate the volume and area using the correct tools. They calculate the time and temperature and the perimeter and side lengths of...

Tenth graders investigate the relationships of pressure and volume and pressure and temperature of gases. In this gases lesson plan, 10th graders use an inflated balloon to show the relationship between volume and temperature of the air...

Students investigate the relationship between pressure and volume in gases. In this gases, pressure and volume lesson plan, students learn about the meaning of pressure. They observe different nail boards and are able to sit on the...

Eighth graders investigate the effect of temperature on the volume of a gas in a closed container. They measure the height of the water in their beaker/container, conduct their experiment, and create a graph to illustrate their data.

Learners examine objects and find their volumes using geometric formulas in the 21st installment of this 25-part module. Objects take the shape of truncated cones and pyramids, and individuals apply concepts of similar triangles to find...

Maximizing resources is essential to productivity. Class members complete an activity to show how math can help in the process. Using a piece of construction paper, learners construct a box with the maximum volume. Ultimately, they...

There's no need to think outside the box for this one! Scholars measure the length, width, and height of various boxes. Results help develop the formulas for the surface area and volume of rectangular prisms.

Design an efficient cereal box. Scholars use set volume criteria to design a cereal box by applying their knowledge of surface area to determine the cost to create the box. They then determine whether their designs will fit on...

Your classroom will overflow with learning as they analyze the volume in a pot of meatballs. Young mathematicians predict the number of meatballs that will make a pot of sauce overflow. They incorporate both the volume of cylinders and...

Geometric design makes a fashion statement! Challenge learners to design a hat to fit a Styrofoam model. Specifications are clear and pupils use concepts related to three-dimensional objects including volume of irregular shapes and...

Perfect for visual and hands-on learners, an engaging lesson prompts pupils to consider the different-sized boxes they can create from a piece of cardboard. They develop a model to determine the size of the box with the greatest...

Knowing the surface area certainly helps when deciding how much paint to buy before a project. Scholars solve for surface area, as well as volume and area, as part of the presentation from Grade 6 Claim 1 Item Slide Shows. Geometric...

A class might find this presentation complicated at first, but with your explanations would understand the relevancy of the diagrams included. An animnated plunger shows the change in pressure on a gas and makes the reasoning behind the...

Plan a dinner party. Using a book by Marilyn Burns as a context, pupils learn about the relationships between area and perimeter and surface area and volume. The hands-on activities have learners rearrange tables and cut up meatballs to...

In this volume worksheet, students determine the volume of rectangular prisms. Students examine diagrams, tables and short story problems to determine information needed to find the volume. This ten-page worksheet contains approximately...

How much math can your learners pour out of a cereal box? Your middle schoolers will explore their favorite cereal and calculate the surface area, volume, and weight ratios and log this information on the provided worksheet. They get to...

Don't stuff money under your mattress. To find out why learners first complete a task determining how $24,000 in cash would affect the height of a mattress and whether this same amount would fit into a suitcase of given dimensions....

Combine geometry and algebra concepts to solve a modeling problem. Young scholars consider the effect surface area has on volume. They write a cubic function to model the possible volume given a specific surface area and then...
