They can then create word problems based on their findings. Have students apply their knowledge of fraction division by scaling recipes up or down to practice their skills. They can write out the steps, show their work with visual models, and present how they adjusted quantities to serve different groups. Using Khan's lessons on surface area, have students create 3D models from nets using paper or cardstock. They can calculate and compare surface area and volume, and explain how changing dimensions affect each measurement.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
