In this volume of prisms worksheet, learners compute the volume of nine shapes. Answers are given on the page, students are directed to show formulas and computations. The worksheet contains two each of rectangular prisms, cylinders, and...

Solids come in many shapes and sizes. Using geometry, scholars create two-dimensional cross-sections of various three-dimensional objects. They develop the lesson further by finding the volume of solids. The module then shifts...

Time to find out what they've learned! The final lesson of a five-part series has learners complete a 39-question multiple choice review. They use what they've learned in the previous lessons to complete questions that include concepts...

To take the longest path, go around—or was that go over? Class members measure scale drawings of a cylindrical vase to find the height and diameter. They calculate the actual height and circumference and determine which is larger.  

In this volume worksheet, students solve twenty volume of various solids problems.  The solids examined include: cylinders, cubes, rectangular prism, including how the volumes of these figures change with increased in length. ...

In this volume worksheet, 6th graders solve 5 different problems related to determining the volume of various objects. They determine the volume of a rectangular prism, a cone, a cube, a pyramid, and a cylinder.

In this volume and surface area activity, 10th graders solve and complete 12 different types of problems. First, they find the volume of an isosceles trapezoid. Then, students find the volume and total surface area of a sphere. They also...

Students explore the mathematical properties of traditional American Indian lodges. They examine the effect of increasing sides of a polygon, calculate the surface area of prisms and cylinders, and construct a classroom size pyramid...

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...

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...

Figure out the correct name for different three-dimensional shapes by watching the presentation on solid figures. Go through the main figures and read about the characteristics of each. Finish the topic with a multiple choice online...

Students investigate the volume of cones. In this geometry lesson, students define the formula to find the volume of cones. They define the concept of having to dissect a three dimensional figure and find the volume.

For this solids worksheet, students compute the volume of prisms, cylinders, pyramids, spheres and cones.  This seven-page worksheet contains approximately 68 problems. 

Pupils calculate the surface area and volume of shapes. In this geometry lesson plan, students create different scales and calculate the volume and area for each shape. They compare and contrast between the different scales and shapes.

Students classify polygons by name and shape. In this geometry lesson, students identify the lateral surface of each conic. They differentiate between cones, cylinders and spheres.

Students calculate the surface area of different prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify the shapes of solids based on the properties of that solid. They calculate the surface area using nets and properties of prisms.

Math: The only subject where the solution to a problem is seven million matches. Young scholars first complete an assessment task estimating the number of matches they can make from a tree of given dimensions. They then evaluate provided...

Students find the mass, volume, and density of various objects. In this density measurement lesson, students observe how same-sized objects can have different masses, then use water displacement to find the density of each object and...

In this math study guide, learners solve problems previously studied throughout the school year. Problems include, but are not limited to, volume, area, perimeter, square roots, binomials, trinomials, graphing, and consumer math. This...

Young scholars design a candy container that contains a specific amount of candy. They demonstrate how an engineering problem can be solved with math and that there are multiple answers to the problem. They compute volume of spheres.
