Acute Solutions

Word problems around surface area and volume that push students to apply their knowledge on the topic. The worksheet includes 9 problems with embedded additioal questions.

This assignment asks students to apply their knowledge of surface area and volume. They are presented with a problem and must calculate and justify their solution of what is the best option of available for a company. Small rubric and exemplar are included.

Learning Target: I Can develop and use formulas for the Lateral Area, Surface Area, and Volume of a Prism or Solid Students will complete the following and then need to answer a series of questions. In order to meet this target you must complete the following: 1) Draw each of the following shapes on their own sheet of paper (drawings do not have to be to scale since that would be a special kind of punishment). a) Rectangular Prism b) Triangular Prism with Right Triangles as Bases c) Cylinder d)

This worksheet contains a series of questions regarding rate of change. Students will have the opportunity to practice the following: - finding the rate of change given a table and analyzing it's meaning - solving for the rate given a scenario - analyzing a graph and finding the rate of change (slope) - describing the meaning of the rate of change in a graph

Learning Target: I can use the properties of similarity and scale to build scale models. Supporting Learning Target: I can scale a baseball field by a specific scale factor. Includes activator, introduction to project, graphic organizer and rubric.

Learning Target: I can use my knowledge of surface area and volume to solve real world problems about cylinders and rectangular prisms. The document will be a word download so you can edit as needed.

This in class activity has students come up with the formula for surface area of cylinders. Students walk away remembering how and why to use the formula. There is some prep work for the teacher to "wrap" canned goods. You will want string and rulers available. One of the most successful activities I have done with my students!

Included are 9 station activities that gives students different and hands one was to review the material they learned about Surface Area and Volume. This allows them to apply and explore the formulas in engaging ways while working in small groups. You will need to provide: - a cylinder - a few nets - one can (like a soup can) and a box - cubes - a couch pillow (or a small pillow)

Attached is a Learning Target tracker for the Geometry target: I can prove two triangles congruent. The tracker is broken into supporting learning targets for students to better understanding of the components needed to meet the overall LT. The targets are aligned to Engage NY Unit 1. Perfect for Standards Based Grading but can be used in any format. Document is an excel file.

Learning Target: I can apply properties of arcs and sectors to solve problems involving circles.

Worksheet or HW assignment with 4 direct application and 2 word problems using the Pythagorean Theorem.

This worksheet includes and activator and three word problems focused on students grappling with cross sections of 3D figures (like pyramids).
