of three-dimensional objects.
Grade 6
Measurement Units, Benchmark F
01. Understand and describe the difference between
surface area and volume.
Measurement Units,
Benchmark G
01. Understand and describe the difference
between surface area and volume.
Use Measurement
Techniques and Tools, Benchmark E
04. Determine which measure (perimeter,
area, surface area, volume) matches
the context for
a problem situation;
e.g.,
perimeter is the context for fencing
a garden, surface area is the context
for
painting a room.
Grade 7
Use Measurement Techniques and Tools,
Benchmark A
05. Analyze problem situations involving
measurement concepts, select appropriate
strategies and use
an organized approach
to solve narrative and increasingly
complex problems.
Use Measurement
Techniques and Tools, Benchmark F
09. Describe what happens to the
surface area and volume of a three-dimensional
object when
the measurements
of
the object are changed; e.g., length
of sides are doubled.
Grade 8
Use Measurement Techniques and Tools,
Benchmark B
4. Derive formulas for surface
area and volume and justify them
using
geometric models and common
materials.
For
example, find the following:
the
surface area of a cylinder as a function of its
height and
radius
