Build a 3 x 2 x 1 rectangular prism. Record the volume. Increase the height by 1 cube by adding a layer of cubes to the first level of the structure. Record the volume. Add another layer! How did the volume change? What patterns do you see? What would the volume be if you had 10 layers? How do you know? L
It’s all about the layers! How does this activity link to students’ previous understandings of area? How does it help build a foundation for developing a volume formula? It’s all about the layers! This activity can be found in Math Matters, pg L It’s all about the layers!
