Bottles and barrels (includes employability skills)

Context

In this activity, students calculated the volume of a cylinder and then applied this knowledge to calculating the volume of a wine barrel. They were also asked to reflect on their problem solving strategies.

The elements of the Space standard addressed by the task are:

(Students) represent two- and three- dimensional shapes using lines, curves, polygons and circles.

(Students) recognise and describe boundaries, surfaces and interiors of common plane and three-dimensional shapes …

Stimulus

See Bottles and barrels worksheet (Doc - 1MB)

Samples

The following samples illustrate the kinds of responses that students typically produce when they have achieved the elements of the standard addressed by this task.
