Chapter 8.4 Volume of Prisms- GEOMETRY

Hello, and finally, we are moving onward through Geometry again.  This lesson is on volume of prisms.  I want to review what a prism is and they are 3-D polyhedrons that have 2 bases, such as a box.  I hope that reminds you of prisms.  And today we add on to this knowledge and learn about Volume of prisms.  Volume is the space inside the 3-D figure.  It has a shortcut, formula, that can figure out that space, but let's look at the examples before looking at the formula. Check out the video link from Emma and she shows many prisms and then shows the volume of some. One example of volume is the cereal inside the cereal box or the milk inside the carton.  After glancing at the book, you will find the formula, so go ahead and enter this in your reference spiral.

Time to take a nap! Mariah's pup is so sweet.

Homework: Read the blog, take notes in your reference spiral and watch the videos for 8.4 VOLUME
