Put students in the role of “Volume Detectives” as they interpret clues and work out the volume of different prisms.
Each of the 20 cards presents a word problem using cube-based descriptions of length, width, height and layers. Students visualise and build each prism before calculating its total volume.
A fun and engaging way to practise volume with increasing independence, supported by included answer cards.
