Talk to your partner about why you could or could not
make a cube or cuboid.
Make the ShapeRoll a dice 3 times. Multiply the numbers you roll.Make a 3D shape with this number of small cubes.
Were you able to make a cube or a cuboid?

What Is Volume?With your partner, write a definition for volume.
Volume = the amount of 3D space taken up by something.
When measuring the volume of a fixed object (where the shape doesn’t
change), we use cubic units. Today we are going to use cubic centimetres
and cubic metres to measure and estimate the
volume of cubes and cuboids.

What Is Volume?We can find the volume of these shapes made from 1cm³ multilink cubes
by counting the number of 1cm³ cubes that make up each shape.
Remember that some shapes have cubes that are hidden from sight!

Calculating Volume ofCubes and Cuboids
We can calculate the volume of cubes and cuboids by counting cubes in layers:
In the top layer, there are 6 cubes (3 × 2).

3
2
1 There are 4 layers.
3 × 2 × 4 = 24
If each cube were a cubic centimetre, this would be 24 cubic centimetres, which we
could write as 24cm³.
