Count and Reason With These Measuring Volume Worksheets
Make finding volume meaningful with these Measuring Volume Worksheets! This 2-page set helps students explore volume by counting unit cubes in both rectangular prisms and irregular shapes.
The first page offers practice with visual models, while the second page encourages critical thinking through reflective questions like ‘Which shape has the greatest volume?’ and ‘Which shape’s volume was the easiest to measure and why?’ An answer key is included with these measuring volume worksheets for easy grading or self-checking.
Using This Volume Counting Cubes Worksheet Set
Our volume counting cubes worksheet set has many uses beyond independent practice! Here are a few ideas of other ways to utilise this resource in the classroom.
