Description

Give students hands-on practice finding the volume of rectangular prisms. Students place the digits 0–9 to fill in missing lengths, widths, heights, or volumes across three prism problems on each card.

Why use Math Tiles?

  • Make problem solving hands-on by letting students move number tiles and test their ideas.
  • Build flexible thinking as students follow different clues and try more than one strategy.
  • Practice perseverance and build confidence by revising a choice when the first idea doesn’t fit.
  • Give students meaningful independent practice or have partners explain and compare their thinking.
  • Save paper by reusing printed cards and having students record their answers on a separate sheet.

What’s included

  • 30 puzzle cards in color and black and white
  • Google Slides version with movable number tiles
  • Student recording sheet
  • Answer keys
  • Teacher setup tips
  • Printable 0–9 number tiles

How to use it

Use a puzzle after teaching the volume formula and have students explain how a known volume can help them find a missing dimension. For print, cut out the included number tiles or use a set you already have. In Google Slides, students move the tiles in edit mode.

More Time to Tile puzzles

Keep the same puzzle routine with Area and Perimeter Math Tiles or Area of Triangles Math Tiles.

Hello, I am a fan of your tile products and have purchased 4 versions. When I try to print the Volume version, which is listed as a hands-on activity, it is prompting me that it is a paperless version and won't print. And then prompts me to purchase the PDF version for another $8.99. Hopefully you can help me with this?
