Description
Need a fun way to review & extend volume concepts? This project based learning activity has students design a water park using volume skills. It includes several higher level questions that will get students thinking and help them develop a better understanding of volume of right rectangular prisms and other 3-D figures.
Perfect For:
- Enrichment
- Skills Practice or Homework
- End of Unit Review
- End of Year Test Prep
- Test or Assessment
- Project Based Learning Activities
- Fast Finisher Challenges
- Cooperative Learning Partner or Small Group Work
- Differentiated Math Stations or Centers
Students will:
- Complete Unit Cubes & Volume of Rectangular Prims Interview Questions
- Finish Original Pool Plans with Missing Dimensions
- Design their own Water Park and Determine Volumes of each Pool
- BONUS: 8 Extension Pages for Early Finishers & High Achievers
The extension pages involve measurement conversions, line plots, fractional dimensions, surface area, writing, and more math and critical thinking skills!
Two versions of the project included. A customary and metric version, as well as a metric system only version. The metric system only version is easier due to having smaller numbers, so this version could be used to differentiate within your classroom.
Available in both paper (PDF) and digital (made with Google Slides™) versions
Answer keys included as well as a grading checklist for the aquatic center plans.
Please Note: If using the digital version, I recommend giving students the option of drawing their water parks on paper. Then, they can take a picture of it to upload.
