Dimensions&Shapes

This week we began our discussion of 3D figures~rectangular prisms and cylinders. Before jumping in, I felt like I needed to address the differences in 1D, 2D, and 3D. This is a short do now I created as an introduction.

Also, before talking about specific formulas, I wanted the students to develop a general understanding for surface area and volume. My amazing PLC partner created a great discovery 'do now' activity that brought the students to the exact general understandings of these two terms through a series of scaffolded questions.

From there, we created this foldable. (not the most attractive, but they did the job)
