All Week Note: The Students will have work time on a WebQuest on Volume & Surface Area. This project will be due on Thursday.
Monday: Volume and Surface Area Assessment
Goal: Students will use the correct formula and are successful at finding the volume and surface area of 3-D Objects.
- All Students will take the assessment
- Students can use;
- Note Packets
- Book for formulas
- Calculator
- WebQuest work when finished
Tuesday through Thursday: WebQuest and Assessment Time
Goal: Learn about Great World Architecture and find the volume and surface area of the buildings.
- Students that do not achieve a C or better on the assessment will be reassessed on Volume and Surface Area.
- Students will continue to be reassessed each day until they are successful.
- Students can use;
- Note Packet given to them at the beginning of the Chapter
- Text Book
- Calculator
- Students that achieved a satisfactory score on the assessment will use the math computer lab to work a project dealing with volume and surface area.

Note: This week we will focus on Volume and Surface Area of 3-Dimensional objects.
Monday: Post view of Chapter 4 Test & Discussion on Volume
Goal: Identify the correct formula to find the volume of a 3-D object.
- Post view of Chapter 4 Test
- Volume of Prism & Cylinder = Area of Base × Height of object
- Volume of Pyramid & Cone = ⅓ × Area of Base × Height of object
- Class Practice
Tuesday: Surface Area Discussion and Practice
Goal: Identify the correct formula to find the Surface Area of a 3-D figure.
- Warm-up check on volume
- Surface Area of Prisms and Pyramids
- Surface Area of a Cylinder = (2×π×d×hieght of Cylinder) × (π×r²)
- Class Practice

Tuesday: Quiz on Volume of 3-D Object
Goal: Students will show mastery of using a formula to find the volume of a 3-D Shape.
- Volume Quiz
- Students can use;
- Note/Vocabulary Packet
- Calculators
- Lesson 4-9 “Surface Area”
- Students will take the NETS they made of a 3-D Object and find the area for each face.
Wednesday: Lesson 4-9 Surface Area
Goal: Students will calculate the surface area using formulas of 3-D Objects.
- Lesson 4-9 Surface Area
- Students will take the NETS that they made from 3-D objects and find the AREA it covers
