Finding Volume of Spheres

Learners experiment to understand the volume of a sphere. In this volume lesson, pupils create spheres, fill them, and then find the volume of their spheres. Everyone calculates the inside of planets.

Here is an intermediate finding volume worksheet in which learners determine the volume of eight containers and then respond to four short answer volume questions.

For this identifying units of measure worksheet, students estimate the volume of their bodies using the bath method and component method, estimate the density of their bodies and use a conversion sheet to convert metric measurements....

Turn up the volume in 3-D. The video introduces the concept of volume and the units used to measure it. Using a graphical representation of translating 2-D figures, the resource develops the formulas for finding the volume of prisms and...
