Duration: 50 minutes
Learning Goal: Continue to practice with calculating surface area and volume for various 3D shapes.
Prework
Consider joining our free online workshop to explore 3 Act Math more in depth
If possible, use big whiteboards and have each group member write with different colors
Write pre-scripted questions for audience members to ask during presentations
