Students must match the dog bones to make the given answer. This post shares my go-to activities, video, and resource for teaching volume including a few free resources. When I introduce Volume for the first timel, I always like to start with this Study Jams video on volume. My students always love Study Jams video and this video is great for showing visuals to help the students conceptually understand the concept of volume.
After introducing the skill through this video, we do a lot of building prisms and practicing the skill in a hands-on manner. One way that we do this is by building different rectangular prism using linking cubes. Here are some of the activities we do when building prims and calculating volume by counting the cubes and not using the formula — more about how we transition to the volume formula in the next section :. After a few days of practice building prims and calculating volume, we are ready to move to the volume formula length x width x height.
I do this through an exploratory lesson where the students at my guidance use their unit cube prisms to derive the formula. Then, we test it out several times with new prisms before we officially decide that it is an effective and efficient formula for determining volume.

One of our favorite activities is measuring actual boxes and then determining the volume of those boxes. This also helps the students check the reasonableness of the volume they calculate, which helps with estimating volume.
For this hands-on volume activity, we ask students and other teachers in the school to bring in boxes and we collect them from year to year. The students use rulers they choose inches or centimeters to measure the length, width, and height. Then they use the formula that we derived in the previous lesson to determine the volume.
