Volume of a Cube and Rectangle  7th Grade Pre-Algebra   Measurements   Introducing a Concept     Volume of a Cube and Rectangle  - Text Book - Internet Access - <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">Computers with Microsoft Word <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> Students have shown proficient understanding of multiplication of whole numbers and are now moving on to calculating the volume of a cube and rectangle. Students will learn that volume is calculated by the length, height, and depth of an object. Students will know the algebraic formula for the volume of a cube and rectangle. Students will also learn how to construct 3-dimensional objects on the computer with varying dimentions. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> __Homework:__ Test Book even questions 1 - 20. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> __Project:__ On day two students will complete the Scavenger Hunt assignment in the computer lab independently.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> Students will use the Internet to learn about volume in cubes and rectangles. They will create 3-dimentional objects with volume using two different online programs. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> Students will be learning about volume by the implementation of online programs. This will give them a visual understanding of what volume is and how there are many different shapes containing volume.
