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.
This activity reinforces students' understanding of various math standards.
This resource provides a lesson plan over 2-4 class periods for your students to learn what volume is and how they find volume of rectangular prisms through building off of what they already know about area. They will learn not only what volume represents but also how to solve it using a formula and then be able to teach all of this back to us through their creation of a powerpoint presentation, a story book, or a comic strip.

Come join the Yum Yum Cereal Company to design their new cereal box! Students will create a hands-on cereal box to demonstrate their knowledge of volume.
Students learn the history of the waterwheel and common uses for water turbines today. They explore kinetic energy by creating their own experimental waterwheel from a two-liter plastic bottle. They investigate the transformations of energy involved in turning the blades of a hydro-turbine into work, and experiment with how weight affects the rotational rate of the waterwheel. Students also discuss and explore the characteristics of hydroelectric plants.
