Painting a Barn
When painting a barn you have to calculate surface area, and that is exactly what this resource is about. Not only will your future home owners calculate the surface area, but also the cost. It is a real-life problem that every that...
Curated OER
Living in a Geometrical World
Students participate in a series of hand-on, online, and multimedia activities to examine 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional shapes. They describe common geometric solids. They construct rectangular prisms using straws and ribbon.

Build a Geome-Tree
Geometers construct a mobile or ornament using nets of three-dimensional polyhedrons. Not only do they need to compute the volume and surface area of each figure, they also earn points for creativity, neatness, and more!
Curated OER
NetsS.A. of Prisms
Young scholars build nets of three-dimensional prisms based on the dimensions they are given for hexagonal prism, triangular prism, rectangular prism. Working in groups, they use their prisms and calculate the Surface Area and Lateral Area.
Curated OER
Net (Closed Cylinder)
In this math net worksheet, students cut out, fold, and assemble a closed cylinder. Students use the net provided to make the three dimensional figure.
Curated OER
Net (Triangular Prism)
In this net instructional activity, students use the pattern to create a triangular prism. Students cut out the pattern and fold on the dotted lines and paste it to make the solid figure.
Curated OER
Net (Cone)
In this cone worksheet, students cut out, fold and assemble a solid figure of a cone by using the net provided on this page. No written directions are given.
