In Math Six, students continued their work in Part Eight - Volume and Surface Area by completing a Quick Check dealing with volume of right rectangular prisms.  Students worked with an assigned partner to complete story problems dealing with the volume of right rectangular prisms. Once their work was checked by Mr. Giomini, students were allowed to begin independent work on Khan Academy in an attempt to complete their two assigned skills and their 45 minutes of weekend practice.

Today's Learning Target(s): The student will be able to...

1. apply the formulas V  = lwh and V = Bh to find volumes of right-rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.  
2. find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths.

For Weekend Practice, the student is expected to complete...

1. 45 minutes of meaningful practice on Khan Academy.
• Volume with Unit Cubes
• Volume with Fractions
