Work out the volume of the three robots (one fairly easy, one medium, one quite tricky). The robots are made of cubes, cuboids and cylinders. The students will need to know that the volume of a cylinder can be calculated as the area of the cross-section multiplied by the length/height.
This worked really well with both my KS3 and KS4 classes and is a fun way to practice finding volumes of compound solids.
The last robot has some tricky metric conversions of length and area also.
Tables are provided for each robot to scaffold the calculation of the total volume, and answers are provided.
Worksheet provided in both PDF and Publisher versions.
