Topic 7 Surface Area and Volume.

We are not recommending the online Topic 7 test at this time in this current form.

Some of the test items are tricky.

Topic 7 can be assessed with projects or a mini-unit or a teacher-created assessment. Good luck!!

If you do use? Please take yourself first, and edit using the Word document and customize.

Perimeter is taught and mastered in Grade 3.

Area of rectangles is used to master area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals and polygons (composing and decomposing) in Grade 6.

This ORQ or ER can be used as a starter at the beginning of the Topic 7 to review and start the learning of area, volume and surface area.

Thanks to Paula Cissell Mlinar (Dixie - former Winburn) and Veda Wylie (Beaumont) for creating and sharing.

Area, Surface Area, and Volume:
Where are these topics taught in our FCPS Math Standards/Curriculum?


Grade 3 Measure area by counting squares
Grade 3 Relate area to multiplication and addition

Grade 4 Multiplication with Area Models

Grade 5 Measure volume by counting unit cubes
Grade 5 Show volume would be the same as multiplying edge lengths
Grade 5 Apply volume formula V = l x w x h or V = B x h (whole number edge lengths)

Grade 6 Area of triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by decomposing into triangles and/or rectangles
Surface Area of a triangular or rectangular prism taught but not state tested
Volume of right rectangular prisms using V = lwh or V = Bh (rational edge lengths)

Grade 7 Area and circumference of circles
Area of a trapezoid by formula
Surface Area (using nets as needed) for cubes, pyramids, and right prisms
Volume for cubes, pyramids, and right prisms

Grade 8 Apply formulas for surface area of cones, cylinders, and spheres
Apply formulas for the volume of cones, cylinders, and spheres

Reminder:
When a course is skipped for acceleration (i.e., a student moves from 7th Grade Math “PreAlgebra” to 8th Grade Algebra), the math teacher must include “skipped content” in the course currently being taught to those students.
