VOLUME

In this unit, you will connect ideas about two dimensional figures and three dimensional shapes.  The flat surfaces of three dimensional shapes have area; but, we want to measure the volume or how much these shapes will hold.   Volume is the capacity of an object and is measured in cubic units.  First you will use a two-dimensional plan called a “net” to create a three-dimensional shape.  You will then find the volume of the shapes you built from nets.
