Yellow: How can you measure volume? Green: What is area? Blue: What similarities do area and volume share? Purple: How do area and volume differ? Step 2: Post your response on the KWL poster under the “K” (What I Know) section. Option 1: Engage Notes to the teacher: If you don’t have different colors of sticky notes you can number the sticky notes/paper and assign numbers to the questions listed.

Come up with a way to find the volume of the milk carton using only the materials that you have been provided. Teacher notes: Give students ample (I suggest 250-300) centimeter cubes so that they have more than enough. This will only give them an estimate as they can’t make fractional parts from the centimeter cubes.

What is the volume in cubic centimeters of the ½ pint milk carton?
