Starter reviewing areas of 2D shapes. Examples of volume calculations looking at areas of cross-sections leading to volume. Surface area found by through finding areas of each face. Worked examples and questions on all ideas. All answers included.
Six spiders on surface area and volume (3 of each) and a final "problems" spider. They are of increasing difficulty, moving from cubes and cuboids to prisms to cones, spheres and pyramids. These are designed to avoid students getting into a rut of performing a mathematical recipe by asking a mixture of finding surface area/volume to working backwards. These usually encourage discussion in class.
Enhance understanding of area and volume factors by using these worksheets to calculate the surface area and volume of shapes before and after enlargement.
Revise volume and area formulas at the same time. Calculate the area and volume factors by using the scale factor and see how the answer relates to the answers achieved from using formulas.
Also calculate scale, area and volume factors given one of the three factors using roots and powers.
