Anticipatory Set: Weve been talking a lot about volume for the past
few lessons, and I know that you have become masters at volume!
Who can remind me of the formula that we use to find the volume of a
rectangular prism?
Prompt students to respond with to the question with Volume =
length x width x height. Write the formula on the Promethean as
students respond to the prompt.
B. Lesson Body
C. Closure
After three minutes has passed at the first tissue box station, prompt
the students to move to the next station to study a different tissue
box. Encourage the students to record their findings in the correct
spot on the worksheet. Repeat this process for Station 2 and Station
3 of the activity, continuing to monitor student work and to watch the
time.
After all three stations have been completed by each of the three
groups, allot two additional minutes for independent work. This will
allow students to check their written work, clarify any questions, and
finish any calculations that were not made during the activity.
Review the contents of the Tissue Box Volume worksheet. Ask for
volunteers to complete the chart on the Promethean, identifying both
the dimensions and the volume of each tissue box. As a class,
review the results of each brand of tissue box.
Prompt discussion with big-idea questions, including:
What tissue box brand has the greatest volume?
What tissue box brand has the smallest volume?
How does volume of a tissue box affect the product quality?
