This is a website providing four activities to develop students' familiarity with three-dimensional shapes, in particular prisms and pyramids. The resource focuses on assisting students to use geometrical language to describe prisms and pyramids, understand their properties and construct geometrical models. The activities ...
This is a website designed for both teachers and students that refers to the drawing of solids from the Australian Curriculum for year 7 students. It contains material on cross-sections of prisms and includes information regarding views, elevations and isometric drawings. There are pages for both teachers and students. ...
This is a five-page HTML resource about solving problems with nets of three-dimensional solids. It contains one video and three questions, two of which are interactive. The resource discusses and explains solving problems with nets of three-dimensional solids to reinforce students' understanding.
This is a website designed for both teachers and students that refers to the construction of prisms and pyramids from the Australian Curriculum for year 6 students. It contains material on prisms and pyramids including their properties and their construction from nets. There are pages for both teachers and students. The ...
Watch this video to learn about the features of 2D shapes. How is it different from the features of 3D shapes (solids)? Some examples of solids that incorporate 2D shapes are mentioned in this video by Sanchit - for example, a cube has six square faces. What other 3D shapes could you make that has at least one square face?
Zoom inside a glass prism and see why glass makes light bend, and how the glass molecules make different colours of light bend different amounts.
This is a 15-page guide for teachers containing explanations of the derivation of formulas for the areas of parallelograms, trapeziums, rhombuses and kites. Formulas for the volumes and surface areas of prisms and cylinders are obtained. Applications of these formulas are given. A history of the development of these concepts ...
This is a 16-page guide for teachers. It provides an introduction to the initial ideas of measurement, and introduces the measurement of length, area, volume and time.
This is an interactive resource about investigating the surface areas and volumes of rectangular and triangular prisms. The resource can be used in one of two modes. In the Explore mode, the student can vary the height, width and depth of the prism, and the surface area and volume are calculated automatically. In the Compute ...
This is a website designed for both teachers and students that refers to volumes of prisms and using formulas to find the volumes of prisms. It contains material on rectangular and triangular prisms and finding the volumes of these by using formulas. There are pages for both teachers and students. The student pages contain ...
This lesson uses unit cubes and hollow objects to demonstrate the concept of volume and the units used.
This planning resource for Year 7 is for the topic of Volume and surface area. Students become familiar with the concepts of volume and surface area. They understand that volume is the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional (3D) object and is measured in cubic units.
This planning resource for Year 6 is for the topic of Shapes and objects. Students describe the properties of 2D shapes and use this knowledge to build objects from their nets and, identify objects from their nets.
This planning resource for Year 9 is for the topic of Volume and surface area: prisms. Students solve problems involving the surface area and volume of right prisms.
This integrated unit of work explores the amazing structures of honeycomb by examining the properties of regular and irregular polygons and polyhedra. Students then move on to solve problems using geometric and algebraic reasoning.
This four lesson unit of work focuses on volume and capacity. Students convert between volume units using the cube of the length conversion, convert between volume and capacity; calculate the volume and capacity of prisms with cross-sections that are triangular, quadrilateral, or irregular shapes; and investigate a rich ...
This seven lesson unit of work focuses on area and surface area. Students convert between area units, determine the area of trapezia, kites, and rhombi, determine lengths from areas and areas from lengths, determine the areas of circles and parts of circles, determine and estimate the areas of irregular and composite shapes ...
This four lesson unit of work focuses on volume. Students define and determine the volume of structures formed using unit cubes, giving answers with the appropriate units; establish and use the formulas for the volume of rectangular and triangular prisms, and cubes using the area of the unchanging parallel cross-sections ...
This planning resource for Year 10 is for the topic of Volume and surface area. Students extend their application of volume and surface area to solve problems on composite solids. Students will need to be able to visualise the individual elements of the composite solids and identify the areas where these elements touch.
This planning resource for Year 8 is for the topic of Volume and surface area. Students further develop their understanding of volume and capacity of right prisms by developing formulas, taking measurements and investigating, making approximations and solving problems in many contexts.
