Volume of a Cuboid Discussion Problem
Worksheet
Group work
If you're on the lookout for some testing extra questions to stretch the minds of your most confident volume-finding mathematicians, these Year 6 Volume of a Cuboid Discussion Problems could be just the ticket! They were designed with group discussion in mind and work wonderfully for that, but there's no reason a maths whizz couldn't attempt them alone, or with an adult as their discussion partner, at home or at school.
Two open-ended problem-solving questions are provided in the pack, along with a sheet of example answers.
Curriculum Objectives
- Recognise when it is possible to use formulae for the area of shapes
- Calculate, estimate and compare volume of cubes and cuboids using standard units, including cubic centimetres (cm3) and cubic metres (m3), and extending to other units [for example, mm3 and km3]
