In this lesson, students calculate volumes of rectangular prisms and use that information to design an appealing and well-balanced tray.
This activity is an opportunity for students to think visually to make sense of the different pathways connecting two points on a geometric prism.

In this lesson, students explore how variations in solar collectors affect the energy absorbed.
Students manipulate the scale factor that links two three-dimensional rectangular prisms to learn about edge lengths and surface area relationships.
In this lesson, the student can manipulate the scale factor that links two three-dimensional rectangular prisms and learn about the relationships between edge lengths and volumes.
The Toblerone candy bar shown is an example prism. By definition, what exactly makes a 3D solid a prism? Describe.
