Young scholars need to be able to calculate the volume and surface area of a cuboid as well as present a systematic list of results in order to justify the minimum case. The use of three factors of 100 is also important.

Ninth graders find the height of an object that would be difficult or impossible to measure directly. They construct and use a Clinometer to measure the angle of elevation (or depression). Students create a sketch of the measurement...

Fifth graders use Geoboards to demonstrate how shapes can be made by looping the rubber bands over the nails. They make a triangle on their Geoboards. At least one side of the triangle should be either horizontal or vertical. The picture...

Fourth graders investigate a range of circles, each with a different radius, diameter and circumference and assemble this information in their search for relationships.The measurement of circles and the relationships to be found within...

Students explore the making of circles and concepts related to them in geometry. The project is inquiry based will focus upon students making their own nametags. The construction is ideal for hands on students.

Ninth graders take a rectangular box (e.g., a cereal box) and cut it up to make a new, cubical box with the same volume as the original. In so doing, they will discover that because the cubical box has less surface area than the...

Third graders use a number of problem solving strategies in this unit of lessons. They determine how to draw and model three-dimensional objects, use co-ordinate systems, determine probability of events, and identify paths of simple...

Students construct using Cabri software. In this geometry lesson, students convert between units and apply the correct measurements to build objects. They create the room virtually and manipulate the shapes to the desired measurements.

In this algebra worksheet, students multiply fractions by adding the exponents on the variables. They reduce numbers and simplify the expression. There are 3 questions with an answer key.

In this geometry worksheet, students solve word problems having to do with lines, angles, shapes, area, perimeter, and more. Students complete 57 problems total.

In this three-dimensional shapes geometry lesson plan, learners identify geometric solids and name their properties. They define "face," "edge," and "vertex," and construct geometric solids using marshmallows as vertices and toothpicks...

In this algebra worksheet, students solve rational expression with multiplication and division. They factor and simplify. There are 6 questions with an answer key.

Students explore geometry by completing a math worksheet in class. In this shape identification lesson, students identify the characteristics associated with 15 solid geometric shapes. Students identify patterns between vertices, edges...

Fifth graders describe patterns as relations and functions. In this patterning lesson plan, 5th graders analyze and continue patterns. Students understand how patterns relate to relations and functions.

In this algebra worksheet, students calculate how many candy canes and ornaments are on each person's Christmas tree. They are given specific clues to help them calculate their answers. There are 2 questions with an answer key.

The mathematics resource consists of an overview of the volume of prisms and cylinders. Real life examples and explanations are included.

Online Math Learning: Volume of Prisms is a learning module that focuses on different skills such as finding the volume of a rectangular and a triangular prism

Online Math Learning: Volume of Prisms & Pyramids is a learning module that calculates volume

Given a problem involving prisms or pyramids, the student will find the volume using appropriate units of measure.

This lesson is designed to reinforce the concept of volume and introduce students to finding the volume of prisms including triangular prisms.

This site gives a short interactive quiz which allows students to self-assess their understanding of the concept of finding the volume of prisms and cylinders.
