Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Measure Volume By Counting Unit Cubes. Suitable for Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5.

Main Concepts

Pack cubes (without gaps) into right rectangular prisms from cubes and count the cubes to determine the volume.
Recognize volume as an attribute of a solid figure.
A unit of volume, a cube with a side length of 1 unit, is called a unit cube.
Use Standard Units of Measure cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft and any unit that the problem presents.
Side lengths are whole numbers.
Compare the volume-units and what they represent when comparing filling or packing (1cm^3 or ml) to determine that both represent filling of 3-dimensional shape.
Use unit cubes as a basis for students understanding of volume as a measurable attribute.
Volume is consists of layers of measurable units.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What is the difference between area and volume? How can you find the length, width, and height of a rectangular prism? What is the formula we use to find volume of a cube? How is it possible to find the volume of any object, even those that are not cubes?

After the Game

How did breaking the ice block into unit cubes help you find the volume of the ice block? How was finding the volume using ice blocks different from finding volume of the liquid inside the cauldron? Can you name 2 different ways that we can calculate volume? When do we use the concept of volume in our everyday lives?
