I created this activity as part of a post-grad project to assess primary student misconceptions in spatial measurement of area, perimeter, circumference, surface area, and volume of shapes including cuboids, prisms and cylinders. Students essentially calculate the various properties of a shape, which is slowly manipulated and recalculated bit by bit, with each step being more challenging than the last. Questions have been asked which relate to common misconceptions in maths and will provide insights into whether students really understand the concepts of area, perimeter, circumference, surface area and volume, and if they are able to apply what they do know to potentially real life situations. I really enjoyed doing this activity with my primary (grade 6/year7) students and found it fascinating to see what misconceptions they had. It's worth noting, however, that the last task proved too challenging for them so perhaps it would be better suited to a grade 7/8 or year 8/9 class. This activity will take about an hour. It comes with an answer sheet and a few notes for the teacher, highlighting misconceptions children may have.

No dice? No problem. Just occasionally, you may want to roll a die but have no dice to hand. Maybe you want to have a fun way to select which team does an activity first, maybe you want to see who in the class can add all the numbers the fastest. There are countless reasons to use dice in your class, but there are also many reasons why they may not be practical or available SO.... Introducing the dice roller. Choose one die up to five dice. Roll them on screen by pressing f9, which generates random numbers on every die. Add fun by having students 'roll the dice' by holding f9 down for a few seconds with their eyes covered. Great way to play a dice game with no actual dice!
