A mathematics investigation involving volume, embedded in a real-world context.

This open-ended mathematics investigation has been designed to deepen students’ understanding of volume.

This teaching resource includes:

  • teacher notes detailing a range of important information about the investigation
  • a detailed description of the investigation for students, including step-by-step instructions
  • an object design worksheet
  • reflection questions.
