This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students work on determining ways to pack boxes with toys in order to examine the concept of volume. This is remixable.
This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers has been remixed to add day 1 and day 2 with activating prior knowledge. Students work on determining ways to pack boxes with toys in order to examine the concept of volume. This is remixable.
This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students explore volume and determine the size (volume) of various boxes. This is remixable.
These parent/family letters are from Tools 4 NC Teachers. They can be sent home to parents at the beginning of Grade 5, Cluster 2. These are remixable.
This task is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students build and explore volume as they build boxes and rectangular prisms.
This task is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students determine the volume of joined, non-overlapping rectangular prisms. This is remixable.
This task is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students build rectangular prisms, find the volumes, and then explore the commutative property. This is remixable.
This task is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students build a rectangular prism with cubes then trade with their partner and find the volume of their partner's prism. This is remixable.
This is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. This task provides the opportunity to engage in a rigorous task about volume with very large numbers. The multiplication and operations of the numbers align with the Grade 5 Standard, but the work with volume with such large numbers goes beyond the Standard. This is remixable.
This task is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students explore the dimensions of a rectangular prism and its volume. This is remixable.
This task is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students consider ways to organize rectangular prisms into different sizes of moving trucks. This is remixable.
This task is from Tools for NC Teachers. Students consider a mathematical claim about how to find the volume of a rectangular prism. This is remixable.
These two Tasks are from Tools for NC Teachers. Students consider a house and the volume of specific rooms. This is remixable.
This Common Formative Assessment is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. It provides items aligned to volume concepts. Teachers can give this assessment at one time or split the items up and have students work on them throughout the cluster. It is remixable, but please maintain the high level of rigor of the items and include an answer key.
Students learn about Pascal's law, an important concept behind the engineering of dam and lock systems, such as the one that Thirsty County wants Splash Engineering to design for the Birdseye River (an ongoing hypothetical engineering scenario). Students observe the behavior of water in plastic water bottles spilling through holes punctured at different heights, seeing the distance water spurts from the holes, learning how water at a given depth exerts equal pressure in all directions, and how water at increasing depths is under increasing pressure.
