Volume
In this resource students find the volume of a variety of cuboids in real life contexts.
The resource is part of the Nuffield Maths Level 1 Foundation resource collection.
Volume
This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 7B which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the second half of year 7. Volume covers the concept of volume, the volume of a cube, the volume of a cuboid, capacity, density and the volume of a triangular prism. The initial file forms part of the textbook....
The language dealt with in this picture book is directly related to volume and capacity.
Volume and Capacity: an Activity Pack
Published by BEAM this resource contains 21 activity cards on volume and capacity, which allow children to develop their mathematical skill by actively estimating, measuring and comparing capacity and volume. Developed by teachers, the cards help find a way of teaching which fits with the way children learn...
Volume of 3-Dimensional Shapes
This video resource from Teachers TV is presented by Fran and Dave, who demonstrate practical applications of mathematics as they show how to calculate the volume of cylinders and prisms.
Graphics are used to demonstrate how to work out the volume of a cuboid, cylinder and prism. A problem is posed which...
Volume of a Tetrahedron
The coordinates of the vertices of a tetrahedron is given. The challenge is to work out the volume of the tetrahedron. This involves calculating the area of the base,...
Volume One: Puzzles A-F
A rich set of activities that are ideal as starters or plenaries in chemistry lessons for students aged 11-16.
Volume Two: Puzzles E-F
A rich set of activities that are ideal as starters or plenaries in chemistry lessons for students aged 11-16.
Volume: Counting Stars
This video, from Twig World, begins by asking how do astronomers estimate the number of stars in the night sky. To explain how it is done, a method of calculating the number of grains of sand on a beach is shown. The same principles are used to estimate the number of stars in the sky.
The video is...
