Students will explore seven polyhedron listed in the table (possibly as a manipulative math center). While exploring the objects, they will be able to record their findings in the table on the work

I created this work page as a pre-assessment before I explicitly taught any multiplication lessons to my students. My main goal was to see how my students were able to represent their thinking involving real-world multiplication problems.
