Volume of Solids

The volume of an object is a measure of the amount of space it occupies. To help students better understand the concept, teachers should prepare physical objects and let students touch them and feel the space they occupy. In this topic, the main strategy for finding the volume of solids is by counting the number of unit cubes. Students can then use this method to derive the formula for the volume of a cuboid, and extend it to the volume of a cube.
