  1. Counting Cubic Units of Rectangular Prisms
    Count to find the cubic measure of each 3D shape. The unit is specified next to the shape.

    1. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in centimeters (cm)

    2. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in millimeters (mm)

    3. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in kilometers (km)

    4. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in yards (yd)
  2. Counting Shortcuts for Cubic Units of Rectangular Prisms
    Find the cubic measure of each rectangular prism.

    1. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in meters (m)

    2. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in inches (in)

    3. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in feet (ft).

    4. 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles edges are in centimeters (cm)
  3. Given the front view of the rectangular prism and the total cubic measure (volume), complete a 3D drawing.
    1. Front View: 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles Volume = 14 in3
    2. Front View: 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles Volume = 30 yd3
    3. Front View: 2D Shapes: Area and Perimeter of Rectangles Volume = 24 ft3
  4. Same Cubic Measures in Different Configurations
    You will be tasked with building a regular rectangular prism with cubic centimeter blocks.
    1. If the total cubic measurement must be 8cm3, draw three different rectangular prisms with this volume.
    2. If the total cubic measurement must be 12cm3 , draw four different rectangular prisms with this volume.
    3. If the total cubic measurement must be 18cm3 , draw five different rectangular prisms with this volume.
