Calculating volume
Volume is the amount of 3D space that an object occupies. Volume can be measured in cubes. Calculate the number of cubes in each shape to work out the volume.
Estimate volume
Look at these containers. Which do you think has the greatest volume? (Think about their real-life size by considering what is inside.) Put them in order from smallest to largest volume. Estimate the volume in cm3, then calculate the volume to see how accurate you were.
Using cubes to calculate volume
Volume is the amount of 3D space that an object occupies. Calculate the number of cubes in each shape to work out the volume (measured in cubic centimetres, cm3).
Sorting regular and irregular shapes
Regular shapes have equal-length sides and all the internal angles are equal. Can you cut out the shapes and sort them into the Venn diagram? Then draw a circle around the regular shapes and write a definition of an irregular shape.
Roman numerals puzzle
Can you complete this puzzle with the correct Roman numerals?
Roman numerals explained
The Roman numeral system is like a code: there are seven symbols (letters of the alphabet) that can be used to make any Roman numeral. To work out what the number is, just add the digits together! If a smaller numeral is in front of the larger numeral, you need to subtract the smaller numeral. Now you have a go...

Can you help them work out how fast they can drive by converting the kilometres into miles? Your answers can be approximate.
Making cube diagrams
A cube number is when a number is multiplied by itself and then by itself again. Cube numbers can be visually represented with cube diagrams. Make 3D models of these cube numbers using sugar cubes, square Lego bricks, clay. How many cubes did you need?
How to construct a pie chart
An ice-cream seller kept a record of the ice-cream sold in his shop over a week. Can you draw a pie chart to show the most popular ice-cream?
Estimate volume
Look at these containers. Which do you think has the greatest volume? (Think about their real-life size by considering what is inside.) Put them in order from smallest to largest volume. Estimate the volume in cm3, then calculate the volume to see how accurate you were.
Estimate and calculate volume
Look around your house and find five different containers (for example cereal boxes, tissue boxes, biscuit tins, DVD cases, etc.). Estimate each container’s volume in cm3 and put them in order from smallest volume to largest volume. Now calculate each container’s volume to see how accurate you were.
Cube numbers explained
A cube number is multiplied by itself and then by itself again! Cube numbers can be visually represented with cube diagrams. When writing a cube number we use a small 3 next to the number. Can you use a calculator to complete the table below?
