I like to review the Gold_Volume_Problems for the huddle for this lesson, because it pushes kids to go "backwards" in the volume formula. The more flexible the students can get in using algebra and geometry concepts to solve problems, the more proficient they will become.
Homework HW129 is to be completed at home and should take students approximately 15 minutes.
