Teaching guide

What students learn

Solve problems about the volume and capacity of right prisms using suitable units.

How to teach it

Sort and name 2D and 3D shapes by their properties (sides, angles, faces), then build up to perimeter (add the sides) and area (cover with unit squares).

Worked example
Rectangle 2 cm by 15 cm. Area = ___ sq cm
Answer: 30

Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.

Watch out for

Confusing perimeter and area, and judging a shape by its orientation rather than its properties.
