In this lesson, students apply the formulas for surface area and volume to determine missing dimensions of aquariums and water level.
In this lesson, students determine the surface area of three-dimensional figures in real-world contexts. Students choose appropriate formulas to solve real-life volume and surface area problems.
Students understand how changing dimensions of a figure affects its volume.
In this lesson, students reason precisely and defend their conclusions and use mathematics to model a scenario concerning volume.
This is an intermediate Learning Plan to use with 6th grade math students when teaching the Geometry unit on Volume. The teacher should give a pretest first and then determine if the student is on a emerging, developing, or proficient level. Please feel free to insert or change any links, etc, to suit your needs. This resource was developed as part of a professional learning opportunity funded by the NCDPI Digital Learning Initiative Planning Grant.
This technology enriched lesson is designed to assist students in understanding how to calculate complex volume and how those concepts translate to use in the real world. Learning styles addressed include visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic.
