This is a whole lesson on Mass, Density, and Volume. It builds on the first compound measures lesson demonstrating how the three measures are linked very clearly. In particular, the lesson is very clear about when different measures are used and how to convert between length, area, and volume. It uses the triangle memory aid throughout. This lesson is ready to go, with no prep required. It is also great for home learning and flip learning. 19-slide presentation + ORIGINAL VIDEO CONTENT + worksheet.
The lesson includes:
+ a fun starter looking at different densities
+ Learning Objectives
+ Keywords
+ superb teaching slides and plenty of excellent examples linked to the starter

Six spiders on surface area and volume (3 of each) and a final "problems" spider. They are of increasing difficulty, moving from cubes and cuboids to prisms to cones, spheres and pyramids. These are designed to avoid students getting into a rut of performing a mathematical recipe by asking a mixture of finding surface area/volume to working backwards. These usually encourage discussion in class.

I’ve created this poster/hand-out so that students can have a summary of the formulas for volumes and surface area of 3D shapes. This should allow students to learn them more easily: students could pin the two page poster on their wall at home so that they can view the formulas every day.
Please NOTE: To calculate the slant heights for some of the 3D shapes requires the use of Pythagoras. I have not included this on the poster so do remind the students of this. Thank you.

Reviews will be MUCH appreciated.
Hope this helps,
